AVOCADO AND TUNA SALAD
Source: From my mother with love & more
My friend, Dahlia Halivny
Ingredients:
2 Avocados , Not really very ripe
1 can Tuna (9 1/4 oz) (I use tuna packed in water)
1 Tabl Lemon juice
2 Tabls Mayonnaise (It can be low calorie mayonnaise)
1/2 Teas Dry mustard
Pinch of salt
Dressing:
Juice from 1 Lemon
1 Small garlic clove crushed very fine
Pinch of salt
Few sprigs chopped parsley for decoration
Put in a shaker, and shake very well. Taste, and add more
salt if needed.
Making the filling: Drain the Tuna. With the fork break the
tuna meat, and add all other ingredients. Mix it well till
it becomes really fine.
Peel Avocado. Cut in 1 cm thick rounds, and very carfully
slide it over it's pit and arrange it over a nice serving
plate.
With a teaspoon fill the avocado in it's center. Sprinkle
over all with the dressing. Toss over the chopped parsley.
Cover with nylon seal wrap, and keep in refrigerator till
you serve.
Here's a dip
1 can flaked tuna, drained
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 med. avocado
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon horseradish
Directions:
Peel and pit avocado; mash well. Add remaining ingredients, mix lightly, cover and chill. Serve with crackers.
I know you can't do crackers but maybe just eating the dip without anything to actually DIP.
