Instructions:
- Start by cubing the avocado. Ensure the avocado is ripe but firm enough to hold its shape.
- Drain the canned tuna to remove any excess liquid.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, gently combine the cubed avocado with the drained tuna. Use a fork or a spoon to mix them together, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
- Add a dash of salt to taste. Be mindful of the saltiness of the canned tuna and adjust accordingly.
- Sprinkle in the black pepper, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the salad.
- Transfer the salad to a serving dish or plate.
- Optionally, garnish with additional slices of avocado or a sprinkle of extra black pepper for a bit more kick.
Tips:

- If you prefer a bit of acidity, a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice can complement the flavors wonderfully.
