I’m all about the tuna and the mayo!
Oh boy does this ever look good. And wink wink so easy, I’d love to try it!
Looks delicious! Ive never eaten avacado in any other way then guacamole. Thanks for the idea.
Oh, my gosh…those items. I can’t imagine that phone cover. 🙂 I am ready for summer, and this does sounds good. I don’t think I’ve ever had balsamic vinegarette on tuna before. Today is Sorry Charlie Day for reflecting on rejections and becoming stronger. I bet those socks got rejected by a lot of people, but I bet they bring in a lot of money, too. 🙂
This looks tasty! Thanks for sharing.

This stuffed avocado salad recipe looks delicious! Thank you! My husband will love it!
That looks so good! My mom used to do that and I totally forgot how yummy it is! I LOVE avocados.
this looks really good love to try this
I’ll bet this is good even without the avocado…because I usually have the rest of the ingredients on hand, but not always an avocado (at least, not always one that’s ripe yet!).
I admit that I am not the biggest fan of avocados but I am fully aware of the vitamins and minerals that it packs. I am lacking potassium because of medications and a thyroid removal which avocados have plenty of. So this I have to try because all the other ingredients are familiar to me and delicious. Super healthy lunch or dinner.
My son loves avocado. I will try the Stuffed Avocado Salad Recipe for him. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
This looks wonderful, and I have some ripe avocados right now, I want to try this!
I just love avocados, so this looks really yummy!
You have the most amazing recipes. I love tuna salad but this elevates it to something really special. Not just avocado, but the tuna inside the avocado is really neat.
