Ingredients
  

1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted

1 can (5 oz) of tuna in water, drained

1 tablespoon Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup diced celery

1/4 cup diced red onion

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (or cilantro, if preferred)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: diced cucumber or bell pepper for extra crunch

Optional: lettuce leaves for serving

Instructions
 

In a medium bowl, mash the ripe avocado using a fork until smooth. Leave some small chunks for texture if you prefer.

    Add the drained tuna to the mashed avocado and mix until combined.

      Stir in the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until well incorporated.

        Fold in the diced celery, red onion, and parsley (or cilantro), mixing gently to avoid breaking down the ingredients.

          Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you want an extra crunchy texture, fold in the diced cucumber or bell pepper.

            Serve the salad immediately over a bed of lettuce leaves or in a whole-grain wrap for a nutritious meal. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one day.
