Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 can (5 oz) of tuna packed in water, drained

2 tablespoons mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a healthier option)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 small celery stalk, finely chopped

2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped

1 tablespoon pickles or relish, finely chopped (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley or dill, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare Avocados: Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Carefully scoop out a small amount of flesh to create a cavity for the tuna salad (you can chop the scooped avocado and mix it into the salad if desired).

    Make Tuna Salad: In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Mix well until creamy.

      Add Vegetables: Fold in the chopped celery, red onion, and pickles (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the flavors according to your preference by adding more lemon juice or mustard.

        Stuff the Avocados: Generously spoon the tuna salad mixture into each avocado half, ensuring an even distribution.

          Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the top with freshly chopped parsley or dill for an added pop of color and flavor.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately as a light lunch or appetizer, or chill for 15-20 minutes for a refreshing cold dish.
