Avocado and Tuna Tapas with Greek Yogurt – (Video)

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:

For this recipe, I used my Medium Stone Bar Pan:

 Perfect When Cooking for Two

This pan is just the right size for packaged brownie and bar cookie mixes, biscuits, delicious dinners for two, roasting vegetables, or reheating leftovers that are better than ever. Plus, it fits in most toaster ovens. Because the unglazed cooking surface draws moisture away, your baked goods, breads, and frozen foods turn out light and crispy every time. The new handle design makes it easy to take in and out of the oven.

Natural Clay Cookware

Our unglazed stoneware is made with our new StoneFusion material making it our strongest and most durable stoneware yet. You can pre-heat, broil, and even put it in the dishwasher. Each piece features a ribbon pattern, so you can easily distinguish it from your original unglazed stones. Like all our stones, you can use it to make your favorite baked goods, frozen foods, or reheated leftovers that are just as good or better than day one. And it only gets better with age. A nonstick seasoning will develop as you use it—the darker it looks, the better it cooks!

My first time ever trying sriracha sauce was when I made this recipe.  I didn’t know what I was missing!  Thanks again to Tiffany over at Crème de la Crumb. You can learn more about Tiffany here.  I’ve featured one of her other recipes, which you can check out here.  She has a ton of delicious recipes!!  Tiffany actually baked her version, but I wanted/needed a quick dinner, and cooking it on the stove-top took less than 15 minutes. 

I was able to try out our NEW Honey Sriracha Seasoning, which was so delicious!!  Here’s some info:

Sweet and Tangy Blend

Bring a little heat to chicken wings, fries, eggs, side dishes, popcorn, or anything you sprinkle this on! Plus, it’s been specially developed to take the high heat in air frying so you can coat fries, potato wedges, and more for better-than-restaurant results. It’s also great mixed in sour cream or mayo for dips and sandwich spreads with a kick.
