No Mayo
With no mayo, you can feel great about eating this heart-healthy yummy treat! Of course, having the most fantastic tuna ever really helps make it amazingly good!
Healthy Sandwich
You may have seen my Guacamole and Tuna Stuffed Avocado that I posted recently. Oh my gosh it was good! So good that I wanted to recreate it as a simple sandwich! And I love that this tuna salad is just that – simple. Just 3 ingredients, so it comes together quickly with minimal chopping. And, it’s so healthy!
Don’t drain the tuna
And remember, if you’re making this recipe with Island Trollers Albacore Tuna, you don’t want to drain off those tasty juices from the can; they’re the juices from the fish itself, not just plain ol’ water or oil. Those juices are loaded with Omega 3s. So, it might feel a little weird not to drain the tuna, but don’t do it.

Instructions
- Place the avocado in a medium-size mixing bowl, and mash with a fork. Add the tuna (breaking up any large chunks), and green onion. Mix together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper if desired (I didn’t think it needed extra seasoning).
