I’m excited to bring you a new recipe for Island Trollers Tuna.  And, I’m also excited to bring you a recipe with two of my favorite things in one!!! Avocado and Island Trollers amazingly fresh and delicious tuna!

You’ve seen me talk about Island Trollers tuna before. If you’d like to read about how I started working with Island Trollers, take a look at my Tuna Chowder Recipe (still a favorite in my house!).

recipe notes

This Stuffed Avocado is super easy to make. And it contains no mayo, so there’s no guilt – it’s just the simple healthy goodness of Fresh tasting Albacore tuna and guacamole stuffed inside a pretty avocado.

I love the garlic Island Trollers Albacore Tuna for this tuna salad. The jalapeno would also be great. But, then honestly, any of their flavors would be fantastic in this easy lunch.

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.

Ingredients
  

  • 7.5 ounce can Island Trollers Tuna undrained
  • 1 large ripe avocado peels and pit removed
  • ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • drizzle of Sriracha, optional
  • sprouts or additional chopped cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut the avocado in half, and remove the pit. Using a small spoon, scoop out some of the avocado from the center of the avocado, leaving a small amount of “wall” around the outside of the avocado.
  • Place the scooped avocado into a medium-size mixing bowl, and mash with a fork. Add the tuna (breaking up any large chunks), red onion, and chopped cilantro. Mix together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper if desired (I didn’t think it needed extra seasoning).
  • Scoop the tuna salad into the avocado bowls.
  • Drizzle with Sriracha if desired, and garnish with sprouts or additional cilantro. Enjoy!

    I never used to eat avocados but I have really grown to love them and eating them right out of the skin is the best! I love to stuff them with salsa and eggs in the morning but these tuna stuffed ones sound amazing!
