Avocado Boat Tuna Melt

Recipe by @starinfinitefood

The most satisfying easy meal that literally melts in your mouth. This recipe is one of my favorite easy weeknight dinners and is packed with protein, omega-3s, healthy fats, veggies and flavor. One of the main reasons I choose Wild Planet tuna is because the tuna is pole & line caught & is very low in mercury—sustainability is key! HIGHLY suggest whipping up a batch of these.

Directions

  1. Prep the avocados. Scoop out a small amount of the avocado centers to make room for the stuffing. Reserve the flesh and chop it finely. Set aside.

  2. Next, add the tuna to a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash the tuna. Add the tomatoes, celery, red onion, jalapeño, sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard, dill, salt, pepper, lemon juice and the leftover chopped avocado. Use a fork to mix everything together until well combined.

  3. Place the avocados onto a sheet pan. Add about ¼-⅓ cup of the tuna salad to the avocado centers. Top each avocado half with half of a cheese slice. Place the sheet pan under the broiler for 3-4 minutes, until the cheese is melted.

  4. Top with parsley and enjoy immediately.
