This clean eating tuna stuffed avocado makes for an excellent lunch!
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these Simple Meals. If you don’t know what this category of recipes on my blog are all about, it’s really pretty simple. They are exactly as the name implies. Totally simple recipes that almost don’t even qualify as actual recipes.
Why do I post these? Because I know there are many of you who don’t particularly care to cook, even if you do want to eat clean and healthy. I also know that there are quite a few of you who are just learning to cook, or simply need fast and very basic recipes for those busy days you just can’t spend time in the kitchen.
And pssst…. these are great recipes for kids learning to cook as well! All of my Simple Meals can be easily adjusted to taste and none of them have long or complicated ingredient lists.
Some of my favorite Simple Meals are stuffed avocados. You get all that healthy, wonderful fat along with flavor and filling protein! In fact, I’ll be doing a few of these recipes in the coming months. So check back for those!
As for today’s recipe, it’s about as simple as a recipe can get. It’s great for breakfast, lunch or dinner too!

Hi Tiffany. You’ve given me an idea for a small bridal shower/brunch I’m helping to prepare food for. But do you have any tips for keeping the avocado from browning if you prepared these a few hours in advance?

Gay – I would rub the avocado with some lemon juice. Not enough to add flavor, but just a thin coat. It might not completely do the trick, but it will help.
