Tuna Melt Avocado Boats

  This makes a great hot or cold lunch! I love the combination of tuna, with fresh tomato and melted parmesean cheese on top. With the added crunch of a nut like sunflower seeds, it makes for a delicious and filling lunch. Try it out, this is great for quarantine since you can use canned or bagged tuna.

Ingredients:
  • 1 packet of tuna (or large can)
  • 1 whole avocado
  • 1 inch piece of onion chopped
  • 1 small garlic clove chopped
  • 1/2 medium fresh tomato chopped
  • 2 Tbsp of chopped pickles (I used about 4 slices of pickles chopped), you can also chop up half of a medium sized dill pickle, alternatively use relish
  • 2 Tbsp of red wine vinegar (balsamic would work too)
  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp salt
  • 6 thin slices of parmesean cheese, or white cheddar.
  • 1/8 cup of sunflower seeds or pistachios shelled and raw

Recipe:
  1. Split avocado into halves, spoon out avocado from both sides and add to a medium sized bowl.
  2. Add tuna, and the rest of the ingredients (except for cheese and nuts) into bowl with avocado.  Mix thoroughly.
  3. Fill avocado shells with tuna mixture.  If you have extra save it on the side for later.
  4. Add cheese on top of mixture.  Microwave for 40-60 seconds.  If the cheese hasn't melted, put in for another 40-60 seconds. Let it cool for a minute or so.
  5. Add nuts/seeds on top for crunch.

This tastes great cold too :)
