Mediterranean Healthy Tuna Salad Stuffed Avocados - This tuna salad has a Mediterranean twist and is served in an avocado! It has no mayo and is an easy, gluten free and low carb meal with only 6 ingredients! | Foodfaithfitness.com | @FoodFaithFit

Ingredients

  • 1 large ripe Hass avocado
  • 1 can yellowfin or albacore tuna in oil drained
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons pesto
  • 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil) minced
  • 2 tablespoons minced olives
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 teaspoon pine nuts chopped, for garnish
  • Fresh sliced basil for garnish

Instructions

  • Cut the avocado in half evenly and remove the pit. Scrape the hole where the pit was so that it's quite large and deep. You should scrape out about 3 tablespoons of the avocado flesh.
  • Add the scraped-out avocado to a medium bowl. Add in the drained tuna and the pesto. Mash together until well mixed.
  • Stir in the minced sun-dried tomatoes and olives until well dispersed. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the mixture between the avocado halves, really stuffing it in and piling it up on top of the avocado (it'll be pretty high).
  • Sprinkle with chopped pine nuts and basil and serve.
