Avocado Tuna Melt

 

Simply delectable. 

This dish is a clean meal, so easy to prepare, full of protein, fiber, and good fats, and will have your mouth craving it's creaminess when it's gone.

I am not a seafood fan, but tuna? I love the stuff, especially warm and sprinkled with cheese.

Cut open that avo and get started.

Ingredients 
1/2 medium avocado
1 can of tuna, in water
1 cup of lettuce, chop
1/6 tsp garlic powder (optional)
shredded cheese
diced tomatoes
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions: 
Place a cup of chopped lettuce on a plate and garnish with diced tomatoes.
In a small bowl mix tuna, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. 
Gently peel avocado half.
Gently scoop out a bit of the center of the avo to make a larger hole.
Place mixed tuna inside the avo crater  and sprinkle with cheese.
place in a microwave save dish/bowl with sides to prop up the tuna filled avocado and microwave for 45 sec, or until cheese is melted.
Gently place heated tuna filled avo on top of the prepared lettuce plate.

 

ENJOY!!!!

Tuna Pita

Need a new, easy, healthy lunch idea?

Tuna Pita. 

Full of omega-3, healthy fiber, and low carbs.  

Ingredients: 
1 pita ( I used Joseph's Heart Healthy)
1 tbs spicy Dijon Mustard
2.5 oz tuna (I used canned, in water)
1 1/2 tbs Greek yogurt
1 tsp paprika
pepper to taste
3-4 cherries tomatoes
had full of greens (your choice!)


Directions:
Mix Dijon mustard, Greek yogurt, pepper, paprika, and tuna in a small bowl till tuna is creamy.
Cut a flap open in pita--just enough to stuff it with ingredients, but not all the way off/in half. 
Fill pita with lettuce, then tuna--placing the lettuce first helps keep the pita from turning soggy from the wet tuna.
Top with tomatoes. 
Fold down flap...

Viola!
