My husband and I love seafood. I'm always trying to come up with new recipes to spice things up in the kitchen. I recently saw a recipe for canned tuna with half of an avocado in the Everyday Paleo cookbook by Sarah Fragoso. I immediately knew this would be a hit in my house. After our time in San Diego, CA we both fell in love with avocados. I try to use them as much as possible. Instead of using half of an avocado, I decided to up my version to one whole avocado and grilled yellow fin tuna. Canned tuna? I don't think so. I'm a classy lady. And classy ladies don't use gross canned tuna for a nice meal for her husband. Instead of being a fatty and spending a lot of money, I decided to buy just one yellow fin fillet. Since he's always telling me to spend less money, I figured this would be a more budget friendly option. And the more money left over for cute dresses at Nordstrom, the better. I grilled the tuna to medium and mixed it with halved grape tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lemon juice, garlic powder and salt and pepper. And I added a small salad w dried cranberries, goat cheese and sliced almonds. This got rave reviews from the husband. In fact, he said this was his new favorite meal. Score one for me!
