＋ Can I make this avocado tuna salad ahead of time?

It s best served fresh, but you can prepare it up to 2 hours ahead. The lime juice helps prevent browning, but cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

＋ What type of tuna works best for this recipe?

Use good quality canned tuna in water or oil. Albacore tuna works well for its mild flavor and firm texture, but chunk light tuna is also perfectly fine and more budget-friendly.

＋ Is this salad suitable for meal prep?

This salad is best enjoyed fresh due to the avocado, but you can prep all other ingredients separately and combine them with freshly mashed avocado when ready to eat.

＋ Can I serve this without the avocado shells?

Absolutely! Serve it over mixed greens, in lettuce cups, with crackers, or as a sandwich filling. The avocado shells are just for presentation.
