Ingredients
- 2 tostadas
- 1 can yellowfin tuna
- 1 tablespoon red onion or shallot, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon fresh-squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon parsley or cilantro, finely minced
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 dashes cayenne pepper (optional)
- ½ avocado cut into small cubes
- Salt, to taste
- crema (optional)
- chunky tomato salsa
Instructions
- Strain the canned tuna, quickly, and then add to a bowl (you just want to strain most of the liquid off not all of it).
- Add in 1 tablespoon finely diced shallot or red onion, 1 teaspoon fresh-squeezed lime juice, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon minced parsley or cilantro, and 2 dashes of cayenne pepper (optional).
- Using a fork, mix until just combined. Taste and add salt, to taste.
- Set two tostadas on a plate. Divide the tuna mixture evenly between the tostadas.
- Add cubed avocado, a spoonful or two of chunky tomato salsa, and a drizzle of crema to each. Enjoy!
Notes
