Tasty Tuesday

Often, if we do not prepare our lunch ahead of time, we end up settling for food that will not fuel our bodies, or end up not eating at all!  Here is a quick Avocado Tuna Salad recipe that can be prepared ahead of time, and in bulk, so that you have lunch already made for the days ahead!

Ingredients:

• 1 5oz can tuna, drained
• 1/2 ripe avocado, roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup minced celery
• 1/4 cup minced red onion
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 2 tsp. lemon juice
• 1 tsp. lemon zest
• 2 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Place all of the ingredients in a medium bowl.  Mix with a fork, masking the avocado and breaking up the chunks of tuna as you go, until the ingredients are well combined.
2. Serve with Ezekiel bread, whole wheat/grain bread, whole wheat/grain tortilla or pita pocket.  Or serve it on top of cucumbers and other vegetables.  The possibilities are endless with this recipe!
