When warmer weather moves in,my thoughts turn to quick, easy salads for lunch or dinner. Nothing could be any quicker to make than a tuna salad. This salad is one that my Mother used to make, but I have made it mine with the addition of sliced avocado. Serve it up with some warmed corn tortillas or some tortilla chips, and you have a delicious combination that will fill you up.
- 1 large can tuna
- 2 boiled eggs
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 12 cherry tomatoes, quartered
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup mayonaise
- 1 Romaine lettuce
- 1 avocado
- 1 lemon
- Drain tuna, and place in a large bowl. Chop the boiled eggs and add to the bowl. Add the next four ingredients, and mix well. Tear the Romaine lettuce into bite size pieces and place on two plates.
- Cut the avocado in half. Remove the pit and peel. Cut each half into slices. Cut the lemon in half, and squeeze the juice from one half onto the avocado slices.
- Place half of the tuna salad mix on each plate on top of the lettuce. Put half of the avocado slices over the top of the tuna salad on each plate. Serve with your favorite salad dressing.
