Simple Avocado Tuna Salad

You will LOVE the Protein-packed goodness of this Simple Avocado Tuna Salad!

With only 10 minutes of prep time, this recipe is a nutritional powerhouse that’s easy to make and customize to your taste preferences. Each serving boasts high protein and healthy fats from the avocado and tuna.

BONUS: You can easily adjust the ingredients to meet your personal nutrition needs or taste preferences.

Want more protein? Add another can of tuna! Need less fat? Use only one avocado. More flavor? Add more fresh herbs, garlic, and lime. The possibilities are endless!

And don’t forget the secret to getting the most juice from your fresh limes – press and roll them firmly with your hands before squeezing. It makes all the difference!
So go ahead, enjoy this refreshing and nutritious salad, and make it your own!

🍋 ALWAYS use freshly-squeezed lime or lemon juice from an actual fresh lime/lemon. Bottled lime juice from the store will give your salad a strange metallic or overly acidic taste.

Want to get the most juice possible from each of your fresh limes? Of course, we do! Here’s a quick trick:

On your counter or a cutting board, press and roll the lime back and forth very firmly with your hands.

The rolling loosens and breaks down some of the citrus membranes and makes the outside a little more pliable. This makes it easier to squeeze, which also means you’ll likely get more juice from your squeeze.

Let me know how this works for you!

4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 large ripe avocados, diced
  • 1 fresh lime, juiced
  • 3, 5 ozs tuna in water, flaked, drained well
  • 1 medium red onion, small diced
  • 3 celery ribs, small diced
  • 2 Tbsps capers, chopped
  • 1 fresh garlic clove, pressed or minced
  • one small bunch of fresh cilantro leaves, minced
  • a handful of fresh dill, minced
  • sea salt and ground pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Start by dicing your avocado; place them in a large bowl and drizzle in your fresh lime juice.

Gently toss to coat.

Add the tuna, onion, celery, capers, garlic, and fresh herbs.

Season with sea salt and pepper to taste, then gently toss to combine.

Best enjoyed and consumed the same day, but it’s still good for about 2 or 3 days in the fridge as long as the avocado is coated with plenty of fresh lime juice.
Enjoy!
