This Avocado Tuna Salad with a Japanese-inspired soy sauce dressing is light yet flavorful and refreshing. It takes very little time and effort to put this mayo-free salad together.

Instructions
- Whisk together all ingredients to make the dressing. Taste and adjust to your liking.
- Gently toss the mixed lettuce, julienned carrot, cucumber and cherry tomatoes with half of the dressing. Then arrange them on serving plates.
- Place avocado slices and tuna flakes on top of the lettuce. Drizzle the remaining dressing (or put it on the side) and serve right away.
Notes
- This salad can serve 2-3 people.
- I like the dressing to be tangy and savory. You can adjust the ratio of ingredients to your liking, or even add a pinch of sugar if desired.
