Looking for a quick, easy, and incredibly delicious meal? This Creamy Avocado Tuna Salad is the perfect combination of rich, tangy, and fresh flavors. Instead of mayo, we’re using creamy avocado, giving this tuna salad a smooth texture with a boost of healthy fats. Plus, with the addition of feta cheese, a hint of lemon, and crunchy celery, every bite is packed with amazing flavor and satisfying crunch.

Believe it or not, tuna salad has been around for over a century! Originally popularized in the early 1900s as a way to use up leftovers, it quickly became a lunchtime staple. While the classic version often calls for mayonnaise, this modern take swaps it for avocado—making it not just lighter, but even more flavorful.

Whether you’re serving it in sandwiches, lettuce wraps, or straight from the bowl, this high-protein, low-carb dish is a total game-changer. Plus, it comes together in just 10 minutes, making it ideal for busy days. Give it a try—you may never go back to the classic version!

Recipe Yield: 2-3 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 large avocado, ripe
2 cans (5 oz each) tuna, drained
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup celery, diced
1.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp cucumber, finely diced (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Mash the avocado: In a medium bowl, mash the avocado until smooth but slightly chunky.

2. Combine the ingredients: Add the drained tuna, red onion, celery, feta cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

3. Add fresh parsley & cucumber: Gently fold in the parsley and, if using, the diced cucumber for extra crunch. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

4. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy immediately as a sandwich, in a wrap, with crackers, or straight from the bowl!


HELPFUL TIPS TO PERFECT THIS RECIPE

  • Use creamy feta: A high-quality, block-style feta will give the best texture and taste. Crumble it yourself for a fresher flavor!
  • Boost the zesty kick: A drizzle of balsamic glaze or extra lemon juice makes the flavors pop even more.
  • Storage tip: Keep leftovers fresh by pressing plastic wrap directly onto the salad to minimize browning.
