Spicy tuna salad avocado boats

You don’t miss the mayonnaise when using Greek yogurt, cream cheese and avocado to make this tuna salad. The zing from the Peri Peri sauce makes this not only a healthy Keto lunch, but a dish you will end up craving. Is it ok to bring tuna to the office 3 days in a row? I think so!

INGREDIENTS:

1 can (5oz/142g) Solid tuna in oil

1/2 an Avocado

1 Tablespoon cream cheese

1/4 Cup whole Greek yogurt, plain

3 Tablespoons of Nando’s Peri Peri sauce, in the flavor of your choice

1.5 oz/43g Red onion, finely diced

Juice of 1 lime

DIRECTIONS

Cut your onion into a small dice.

Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Use a teaspoon to hollow out the center of ½ the avocado slightly, to give you more space for filling. Grind some black pepper over the half you are using, use a dash of the lime juice to save the other half.

Drain the tuna and add to a mixing bowl, along with the extra avocado, cream cheese, yogurt, onion, Peri Peri sauce, lime juice and a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.

Pile the tuna high into your avocado half.

Drizzle with more Peri-Peri sauce to taste and enjoy!
