I have never really been a fan of tuna salad, mainly because I don't care for mayo. However, I recently stumbled across this recipe which substitutes avocado for the mayo in tuna salad. If you have a favorite tuna salad recipe, do not fret. You can use all of the main ingredients you normally use like relish, corn, or peas, but just substitute the mayo for avocado. The recipe below will make about 3 servings and each serving is approximately 199 calories. And best of all, it lakes less than 10 minuets to make.
Ingredients
- 1 avocado halved
1/2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 cup chopped tomato (corn, relish, peas, etc.)
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
6 oz chunk light tuna
- Seasoning of your choice (I recommend Mrs. Dash because it is sodium free)
Directions
In med. bowl mash half avocado
Then add lemon juice, onions, seasoning (and any other ingredients you choose)
Blend thoroughly
