Tuna Stuffed Avocados
Tuna salad was a favorite of mine as a kid and still is today. Nothing quite beats a traditional tuna sandwich on white bread with a side of potato chips, but this stuffed avocados recipe sure gives the classic a run for its money. These tuna stuffed avocados are a simple combination of tuna salad and avocados, topped with crispy bacon, and drizzled with a slightly spicy mayo. They’re easy to make, loaded with healthy fats, high in protein, and satisfying.
