We love avocado nut have never had it in tuna but it does look and sound good. I will try and share this with people who want a healthy tuna alternative.
I love tuna. I will try this because it seems so much healthier without mayo
This sounds so healthy and refreshing! I’ve been looking for a new way to spruce up my salads that I get bored with so quickly and love avocados!
Using avocado in place of mayo was genius! It has the creaminess of mayo, a great flavor, and a ton of healthy fats. Love it!
I’m not a huge fan of mayo. What a great alternative! I’ve never even thought to use avocado. I bet it tastes amazing!
