Chef's Tips
- Freshness Tip: Use ripe but firm avocados for the best texture.
- Spice It Up: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce for extra heat.
- Extra Crunch: Include cucumber slices or sprouts for additional texture.
- Storage: If preparing ahead, store the tuna mixture separately and assemble just before eating to prevent soggy bread.
- Variation: Substitute Greek yogurt for olive oil for a lighter version.
