Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 can (5 oz) tuna in water, drained

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, diced

1/4 cup cucumber, finely chopped

2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Lettuce leaves (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out a little bit of the flesh to create a larger space for the filling. Set the scooped avocado flesh aside in a mixing bowl.

    Make the Tuna Filling: In the bowl with the scooped avocado, add the drained tuna, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Mix well to combine. This mixture should be creamy yet chunky.

      Add Vegetables: Gently fold in the diced cherry tomatoes, chopped cucumber, red onion, and cilantro (if using) into the tuna mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until everything is well combined.

        Stuff the Avocados: Carefully spoon the tuna mixture into each avocado half, packing it slightly to ensure they are generously filled.

          Serve: Place the stuffed avocados on a bed of lettuce leaves on a platter. Optionally, drizzle with a little extra lemon juice or garnish with additional cilantro for a fresh touch.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately as a nutritious and delicious meal or appetizer.
