How to Make Stuffed Avocados
1. Prepare the Avocados
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pits.
Scoop out some of the flesh with a spoon, leaving enough around the edges so that the avocado halves remain sturdy.
Cut the removed avocado into small pieces and set it aside.
2. Prepare the Tuna Salad
Place the drained tuna in a bowl and gently break it apart with a fork.
