MY LATEST VIDEOS

That is exactly what these Tuna Salad Stuffed Avocado Bowls are for us.

It’s no secret. Avocados rock my socks. I love them. Love the fatty and creamy goodness.

It’s like when I began putting chopped avocados into my tomato soup … I realized the addiction was strong.

Rolling with it.

TIP: If you’ve got the extra time I actually love making faux tuna melts with these as well. Top with some swiss cheese and broil on High for about 3-4 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent the cheese from burning.

One day I found myself running out of wraps for my buffalo chicken wraps, I substituted the wrap for an avocado. Heaven.

It was delicious with our Taco Avocado Bowls too.

So why not do this with our healthy tuna salad? Exactly, WHY NOT?

The results are delicious, quick and easy. Especially for those long work weeks.

Make the tuna salad ahead of time.

Take Tuna Salad to work.

Slice an avocado up, mash it a bit and pile in the tuna salad.

Tuna Salad Stuffed Avocado Bowls are born.

Let’s kick off this new year with a delicious bang. Happy New Year’s everyone!
