The Best Burger and Fry Sauce

I promised you the best burger (and fry) sauce ever, so here you go! 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 1/2 teaspoons spicy pickle juice 1 1/2 teaspoons ketchup 1 teaspoon yellow mustard 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon onion powder ETC. I used dill pickle juice and garlic salt instead of powder because that’s all I had. You can just eyeball the ingredients, no need to do exact measurements. (From Epicurious)

Soft Boiled Egg Salad with Avocado Toast

Mix a little mayo and mustard with chives and S&P. (Because the eggs are soft you don’t need much mayo and mustard). Chop eggs and add mayo mixture. Slice bread and top with avocado, a big squeeze of lemon juice, and S&P. Top avocado with eggs and top with chives and more S&P.
