Very easy, quick and tasty. As we were having this for dinner, I scooped out all the avocado, mixed half in with the tuna which I put over mixed greens and then sprinkled the other half of the diced avocado over that along with some halved cherry tomatoes with a few extra dashes of balsamic. I see this becoming part of the summertime rotation.

This is very very good, but I choped up the avocados, and topped the tuna mix with them... all on top of a bed of baby spinach as another reviewer suggested. No additional dressing needed, in fact I think any more seasoning would overwhelm the simple flavor of the avocados that really makes this dish so perfect. I'm sure its god the way its written, but I think the chopped up way is a lot easier to deal with at the table.

Thanks for the idea! I had everything but red pepper, and I did end up putting everything over some mixed greens since I wanted to use them up. It was quite tasty, I never would have thought to put all of these ingredients together. I think the red pepper would have been more important if I hadn't had the meal over mixed greens.

Delicious, easy and healthy! I made this for a Spanish themed Cooking Club gathering and it was a huge hit. I added a couple of extra dashes of balsamic vinegar and included chopped cilantro to the mix, but other than that, followed the recipe exactly. Will definitely make this again and again!

These were pretty wonderful - rather filling, and easy to make (I admit I thought I could polish off two halves stuffed with tuna, but could only go through one half at a time!). I doubled the recipe - used one whole pepper, and 5-6 green onions. A great, healthy midday snack!

This was amazing and satisfying! My husband thought it was a tad too creamy for him but he doesn't like mayo! I didn't have green onion on hand so I used finely diced red onion. I also used a few drops of greek style vinaigrette instead of balsamic vinegar. This has become my favorite way to use tuna and avocado together, thanks so much for sharing!

YUMMY!! I'm vegan, so I used this wonderful product called VegeTuna. I also diced my avocados and then scooped them out and mixed them in (gently) with the "tuna" mixture. I caved to peer pressure and added a 1/2 tsp. of lemon juice and went rogue by adding a few dashes of (vegan) Bacon Salt. It turned out goooood! Awesome summer meal.

I made a whole tapas lunch today and this was a good starter. Fresh, simple, nice to look at and above all, tasty. I forgot to add the pepper, which I think would have added a bit of necessary zest, but that's my fault and not the recipes. A great appetizer idea, as serving in the shells makes it easy to hold and eat.

I made this for a Spanish Tapas party, so I had to change the recipe slightly: 2 tortilla shells, butter both sides and heat on griddle to make crispy. I then basically doubled the recipe (except I only needed 3 avocados and 3/4 red bell pepper and 4-5 green onions) Cut the tortilla shells into eighths, place an avocado slice on the tortilla shell, top with a spoonful of the tuna mixture (I used a cookie scoop), and I placed a fresh cilantro leaf on top. This made smaller portions for many hands at the party. It was a huge hit!!

This was absolutely delicious! I eat my tuna straight out of the can and this was SO much better I think I'll eat it this way from now on. The added flavor of the avocado made this almost a comfort food for me! Unbelievable.
