- 15 oz (or 3 small cans) tuna in oil, drained & flaked
- 1 English cucumber

- ¼ cup (1/2 bunch) cilantro, chopped
- 1 tsp sea salt or ¾ tsp table salt
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Start by slicing one large cucumber into round pieces. Now, transfer to a large mixing bowl. Next is the avocados. You can use three medium or two large avocados for this recipe – whichever you can get. Slice them up and add them to the bowl.
- Break up your tuna with a fork after draining. Then, add it to the mixing bowl as well. Peel and thinly slice a medium red onion and add them into the bowl. Chop ¼ cup (1/2 bunch) cilantro. Add that to the salad along with 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
- Finally, add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin oil and a teaspoon of salt. Now, add some fresh black pepper to the mix. Now, toss them together to evenly mix up.
- You can serve this for dinner as a side meal, but it can as well go for a satisfying lunch because it is loaded with protein from the tuna. You can add mayonnaise if you still wish to, but the avocado makes it yummy already and creamy.
