Instructions

In a medium bowl, mix tuna, mayonnaise (or yogurt), Dijon mustard, celery, onion, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Using a spoon, scoop a bit of flesh from the center of each avocado half to create more space for filling (optional). Dice and add the scooped avocado to the tuna mixture if desired.
Fill each avocado half with a generous scoop of tuna salad.
Garnish with parsley, a sprinkle of paprika, or a few dashes of hot sauce if using.
Serve immediately, chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Use Greek yogurt instead of mayo for a lighter version.
For added crunch, mix in chopped pickles or water chestnuts.
Best served fresh—avocados can brown if made too far in advance.
