Instructions

  1. Place the tuna, cucumber, avocado, red onion and cilantro in a large bowl. 
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, cumin and salt and pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the tuna mixture; gently toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • I use water packed tuna versus oil packed tuna so that I can control the fat content of the recipe.
  • Choose firm but ripe avocados. You want to make sure your avocados are on the firm side so that they won't get mushy when you toss the salad together.
