Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 can (5 oz) canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 1 cup (diced) fresh mango
- 0.25 cup (finely chopped) red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) cilantro
- 1 lime
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Slice each avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Carefully scoop out a portion of the flesh with a spoon, leaving a 1/2-inch border inside the shell. Dice the scooped avocado flesh and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the drained tuna, diced mango, diced avocado, red onion, and chopped cilantro.
Juice the lime and add the lime juice to the mixture. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to mash the avocado or mango.
Spoon the tuna and mango mixture evenly into each avocado half, filling the hollow centers.
Serve immediately as a light meal or appetizer. Optionally, garnish with additional cilantro or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra flavor.
