Description
A delightful combination of creamy avocados and flavorful tuna, perfect for lunches, light dinners, or as an appetizer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 can of tuna, drained
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped celery or red onion (optional)
Instructions
- Start by cutting the ripe avocados in half and gently remove the pit. Use a spoon to scoop out a little of the flesh to create extra room for the filling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. If you like a bit of crunch, add in your chopped celery or red onion.
- Mix everything together well until the tuna mixture is creamy and evenly combined.
- Carefully spoon the tuna mixture into the hollowed avocado halves, filling them generously. Serve immediately or chill briefly for a cooler dish.
Notes
Use ripe but firm avocados to ensure they hold their shape. Experiment with different mustards or add a splash of hot sauce for a bit of spice.
