TUNA STUFFED AVOCADOS

 TUNA STUFFED AVOCADOS

Tuna stuffed avocados are a delicious low-carb, keto, Whole30 and paleo-friendly lunch or snack recipe. A simple combination of tuna salad and avocados, they’re easy to make, loaded with healthy protein, healthy fats and will keep you satiated long after lunch is over.

• PREP TIME: 15 mins
• TOTAL TIME: 15 mins
• SERVINGS: 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

• 4 avocados
• 2 5 ounce cans tuna (I prefer albacore tuna)
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 stalk of celery diced
• 2 tbsp red onion diced
• 1-2 tbsp chopped parsley chives and/or other herbs
• 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add the tuna, mayonnaise, diced celery, diced red onion, herbs, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper to a mixing bowl. Stir together until well combined.
2. Slice the avocados in half and remove the seed. Dollop a few spoonfuls of tuna salad onto each avocado half.

TIPS

1. You can definitely meal prep the tuna salad (will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge) and just slice the avocados daily as needed for lunch.
2. If serving these for a crowd, squirt fresh lemon juice on the avocado halves and rub it in. This will help to prevent discoloration and browning of the avocado.
