Doin' Some Cookin'... Avocado Tuna Salad

Tuna salad sandwiches in my household consist of tuna and mayo. We're simple like that when it comes to tuna. However, with being on this weight loss journey I have branched out and tried a handful of tuna salad recipes and am loving how versatile canned tuna can be and it's a pantry staple. 

This Avocado Tuna Salad has a lot going on but trust me it all works even Little Man loved it and chose a tuna salad sandwich over hot off the grill chicken. So you know this is good. But feel free to opt anything that doesn't float your tuna boat. 

Mayonnaise gets replaced with avocado which helps add creaminess and acts as a binding agent and onions, celery, and apple give it some crunch.
