Ingredients

  • 4 ripe avocados
  • 2 (5-ounce) cans of tuna (preferably albacore tuna)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 stalk celery, diced
  • 2 tbsp red onion, diced
  • 1-2 tbsp fresh herbs (parsley, chives, etc.), chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Tuna Salad:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, diced celery, red onion, herbs, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
    • Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  2. Stuff the Avocados:
    • Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits.
    • Spoon generous amounts of tuna salad into each avocado half.

 

Tips 

  • You can prepare the tuna salad ahead of time. It will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days, so you can assemble the avocados as needed for a quick lunch.
  • If serving to a group, squeeze some fresh lemon juice on the avocado halves and rub it in to help prevent browning and keep them looking fresh.
