Sick and tired of the same old boring tuna sandwich for lunch? I sure am, which is why I am loving the idea of Stuffed Avocados. Not only do I love avocados, but this lunch idea from RealAge is a great way to get loads of monounsaturated fat (the good fat), protein, fiber, and potassium.
For the super easy recipe just read more.
Stuffed Avocados (serves four)
(via RealAge.com)
Forget the bread; next time you're serving chicken (or seafood or tuna) salad for lunch, try mounding it in an avocado half instead.
What you need:
- 2 medium avocados, halved and pits removed
- 1 cup prepared seafood, tuna or chicken salad
What you do:
- Top each avocado half with 1/4 cup of the salad.

anything with avocado is great in my book!
9Not a fan....
10Looks so good! I'm vegan so I can't really it eat the way it is, but maybe with some rice and olive oil and other veggies, it would taste just as good.
11The seafood salad stuffing recipe (as in the photo) would have been a nice addition.
12mmmm! I love avocados and tuna - what a great idea!
13Mmm, I would also love a good seafood stuffing recipe. Those look delicious, but my tuna salad is just so boring.
14Love avocados and these look soooo good. I'd put some tuna salad in one.
I'm going to try this over my holiday vacation!
15That really looks like a california roll without the nori.
Hmm. I wonder how well that would work: crab meat, cucumber, mayo, little bit of sushi rice..
16this looks soo good...can't wait to try it.
17This looks yummy!
18sounds delicious but just wondering how the calorie count adds up? i thought a whole avocado was more than 175 calories.
19Umm, these sound awesome.
20i just love it!!!
21yummmy! must try , poste haste!
22Sounds good to me!
23It makes me want to lick my monitor. I am going to start a healthy diet tomorrow and I think this would be a great way to start me off. Thanks.

25Stop having a boring tuna, stop having a boring life.
