These avocado tuna salad boats are so much fun. The simple yet delicious dish is perfect as a snack or lunch. Loaded with healthy fats and protein these tuna boats will leave you and your taste buds super satisfied. I love making these on laid-back Sunday afternoon for my daughter and I. They take no time at all to prepare.
