Place onions and celery in a small bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt and add lime juice. Allow to sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, while you prepare the rest.
Not only will this tame the pungency of the onions, it will draw out the aromatic juices from the onions and celery, through the process of osmosis, which will flavour your entire egg salad later on.
Mash the avocado in a bowl with a whisk until smooth. Add Greek yogurt and stir to combine. If you are skipping Greek yogurt, it will work just fine, but maybe add a bit more avocado. Add egg yolks and whisk until avocado, yogurt and egg yolks are combined well and form a "sauce." Add the onions, celery and all of the accumulated juices and whisk well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add egg whites and gently break them up with a whisk; ensure some nice chunks of egg whites are still visible. Serve right away on top of toasted bread and enjoy!
