Ingredients:
- 1 can (5 oz / 142 g) skipjack or yellowfin tuna in water, drained thoroughly
- 1 large hard-boiled egg, diced
- ½ medium avocado (approx. 3 oz / 85 g), pitted and peeled
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp (30 g) red onion, finely minced
- 1 tbsp (15 g) fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
- ¼ tsp (1.5 g) sea salt
- ¼ tsp (1 g) cracked black pepper
- ¼ tsp (1 g) garlic powder
Instructions:
- Drain the canned tuna using a fine-mesh strainer. Press down firmly with a spoon to remove as much liquid as possible. Place the dry tuna in your mixing bowl and flake it with a fork until no large clumps remain.
- Add the avocado to the bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado directly into the tuna until a chunky-smooth consistency is reached.
- Stir in the minced red onion, diced hard-boiled egg, chopped herbs, and garlic powder. Drizzle the lemon juice over the mixture and fold gently. Season with salt and pepper, stirring until the salad is a uniform, pale green hue.
