Avocado egg salad
I make this two ways
First way:
Mash the avocados then add chopped eggs and season.
Second way
Chop avocados and eggs add Greek yogurt (if not looking for a healthy option mayo is good too) and season

Homemade crust or use refrigerator biscuits, roll out and use as crust (if you don't have time)

(I don't love it with potatoes even thought they are traditional and I've recently begun to swap peas for them instead and I love it, so its up to you)
Chicken stock or broth (just use the the broth you get from boiling all your veggies and chicken that you just cooked)

Trail Mix
I buy my nuts, seeds, and dried fruit in bulk and make my own trail mix because it's cheaper then buying a small bag of trail mix, and then we can put in what we like.
These are some things I usually use:
almonds
pumpkin seeds
sunflower seeds
dried banana chips
raisins
dried apricots
