Creamy avocado filled with a delicious combination of tuna, bright veggies and Greek yogurt makes these tapas a dish you’ll come back to time and again! I was inspired by something I found on Allrecipes, but I had to change it since hubby does NOT eat mayonnaise. Greek yogurt to the rescue! It was such a fantastic lunch and would also make a great light dinner as well.
For this recipe, I used my favorite 8” Chef’s Knife, along with my Cutting Board, to chop my veggies. I used Garlic & Herb Rub to season the tuna, and my Medium Scoop for the tuna mixture when scooping it into the avocado. Here’s some information on all of the products:

AVOCADO SLICER
Whether you’re a fan of avocado toast or homemade guacamole, you’ve probably felt that twinge of frustration when you’re trying to pry the pit out of the fruit. Now you can enjoy avocados with faster, easier prep using this multifunctional tool.
One end is a knife that helps you cut through the avocado skin, separate it from the avocado flesh, slice the avocado any way you like, and spread it. The pitter end has three stainless-steel prongs that grab the pit, and, with a little twist, the pit comes out. The soft-grip handle is comfortable to hold no matter how you use the tool, and it’s compact enough to keep tucked away in any kitchen drawer.
