Instructions
 

  • Make the Tuna Salad:
  • In a medium bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, red onion, celery, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well until fully combined.
  • Prepare the Avocados:
  • Cut avocados in half, remove the pit, and gently scoop out a little bit of the flesh to make room for the tuna salad. Dice the removed avocado and mix it into the tuna salad for extra creaminess.
  • Stuff And Garnish:
  • Spoon the tuna salad evenly into each avocado half.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley, red pepper flakes, or extra black pepper.
  • Serve And Enjoy!
  • Serve immediately with a side salad or enjoy as-is for a filling, low-carb meal!

Notes

  • No Mayo Option? Swap mayonnaise for Greek yogurt, mashed avocado, or hummus.
  • Make It Spicy: Add sriracha or a dash of hot sauce to the tuna salad.
  • Meal Prep Tip: Prepare the tuna salad in advance, but only cut and fill the avocados just before serving to prevent browning.
