How to Make Avocado Ritz On A Budget

  1. Halve 2 ripe avocados lengthwise and remove the pits. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of lemon juice over the avocado halves to prevent browning.
  2. In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 (5 ounce) can of tuna (drained), 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add a dash of your favorite hot sauce, if desired.
  3. Spoon the tuna mixture evenly into the avocado halves.
  4. Garnish with 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley and a few cooked shrimp (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
