Mash the avocados. Mash the avocados in a bowl with the back of a large wooden spoon until mostly smooth.

Chef's notes
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this avocado egg salad on an everything bagel. It’s just dreamy.
Taste and adjust as you go – I like mine with a little more of a bite so I go heavy on the lemon juice and dill.
