Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Add the chopped onion and halved cherry tomatoes to the bowl with the tuna and avocado.
- Drizzle the lemon juice over the mixture to keep the avocado from browning and to add a fresh zesty flavor.
- Sprinkle the garlic powder over the salad.
- Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to mash the avocado too much; you want the pieces to remain intact.
- Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface.
- Divide the tuna and avocado salad mixture evenly between the two tortillas, placing the filling in the center of each tortilla.
- Fold the sides of the tortillas over the filling, then roll them up tightly from the bottom to the top to form a wrap.
- Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and healthy Tuna and Avocado Salad Wraps!
Tips:
- Ensure the avocado is ripe by gently pressing it; it should yield slightly without being too soft.
- You can use either red or white onion depending on your preference for a milder or sharper taste.
- For an extra crunch, add some chopped cucumber or bell peppers to the salad.
- Use lime juice instead of lemon juice for a flavor twist.
- For added protein and fiber, consider adding a few tablespoons of cooked quinoa or chickpeas.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, sprinkle in some red pepper flakes or add a chopped jalapeno.
With its combination of tender tuna, creamy avocado, and crisp vegetables, this Tuna and Avocado Salad is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients. Whether enjoyed on its own, wrapped in tortillas, or served over a bed of greens, this versatile salad is sure to become a favorite in your recipe repertoire.
