    I took your idea and prepared the avocado a little different. I have made this but I smashed the avocado like guacamole , with minced cilantro, onions , garlic,lemon salt, and then I seasoned the tuna with minced onions and olives . Then I used the avocado like mayonnaise ...It came out delicious .. can be use with chips snacks too. 💚

    Had no idea. Omg been eating the wrong kind 🥴 Also I recommend not buying canned Tuna. Most of the tuna which is canned is not BPA free. In fact my former co-worker who religiously ate Tuna Salad every other day developed cancer. Buy Tuna in pouches or ones that are from sustainable farms. Trader Joe’s is pretty good and the brand Safe Catch Elite those are the only ones I eat. And it’s wild tuna not farmed and is the lowest mercury and ok for pregnant women so you know it’s good.

    Virginia Conway less mercury? No amount of mercury is safe. You are making my point. And yes, I am aware that ALL seafood and fish are poisoned with not only mercury, but pharmaceutical waste and other pollutants probably no one knows about... also plastic ‘dust’ from the wastewater of washed polyester clothing too... the waters accumulate much of the pollution. Thanks for pointing that out. I don’t eat any seafood or fish, especially not one that comes in a can that’s been sucking up BPA. I would never recommend people eat that stuff, let alone present it like it’s a ‘health’ food. I’ve been watching people prepare foods as healthy and the shit they think is healthy... I just can’t keep my mouth shut anymore and it doesn’t help anyone to play nice. Pull your head out of your ass. NO amount of mercury is healthy. Keep eatingvthat crap and enjoy your early onset of dementia.

Many people on the Caribbean Island of St Kitts feed their children a drop of mercury (to avoid being poisoned) when they reach the age where they start eating away from home. And yet the people are mentally agile and alert, stronger, and live longer than most Americans. They eat a lot of big fish too. Go figure.

    Great tip on squeezing the avocado but instead of removing the little brown stem and spoil someone else's food, simply press the little brown stem in gently with your finger. If it pushes in a little, it's ripe. If it doesn't budge it's still firm on the inside. This a great recipe! Instead of walnuts, they reminded me of fish bones idk why, I added fresh diced tomatoes. Flavor bomb!

    This is a SUPERB, very professional presentation of a profoundly practical recipe. I have been looking for a tuna recipe that would go well on tortillas without being soggy - and this is it. Like the endive idea, too. You could make several of these ahead, and eat all day without worry about overeating. Thank you, Chef Amanda!

    First, a great - and healthy - twist on a classic. My mouth was watering while watching this. Other things to consider… I prefer to use lemon / lime juice instead of vinegar, or if I will use vinegar, use rice vinegar because it is just a little sweeter. Instead of mustard, try horseradish for a unique kick - or a little of both. Amanda Li is the FIRST person I know or have seen, other than me, who knows how to “skin” an avocado. I have had too many discussions with ‘know it all” chefs who think they have perfected the “scoop out the meat” technique. Pealing an avocado like Amanda did is perfect: absolutely NONE of the avocado, particularly the rich, green, subsurface to the peal part is left on the skin, the part that is often left on the skin by “spoon scoopers.” What I cannot figure out is how come she had pealing issues. A lot of this comes down to pealing / using a perfectly ripe avocado and pulling the skin off slowly. I suspect her haste during filming caused the bottom ends clung to the peal. If this happens, one has pulled the peal off too fast, the avocado is not ripe enough, or is over ripe. Relative to the stem, this is the best way to determine optimum ripeness - but ya only get one shot at this. If the stem comes off as easily as seen in the video, it is perfectly ripe (which is why _none_ of the meat should have clung to the peal - 95% of the time). Also, when testing the stem, use minimal force: if it does not pop off with very little pressure, then it ain’t ready; if it practically comes off by itself, it is good; and if really comes off “too” easily, it is getting to the over-ripe stage for pealing, but not for use. Finally, relative to tuna, if you can get your hands on specifically identified Yellow Fin Tuna, ya just cannot find better tasting tuna. I was a hard core albacore tuna fan for years, but after recently tasting specifically identified Yellow Fin Tuna and hearing Amanda’s mercury caution, it is strictly Yellow Fin Tuna for me, especially if it is seasoned / packed with sea salt and virgin olive oil.

    Hi Jeanette (and anyone else who may be interested), I was enjoying this video UNTIL she covered the avocado advice. In my opinion this is terrible advice, pull off the stem, check the color, put back if not bright green? How many does she do this to before keeping one? This is same as people who go through the fresh corn and peel back the husks (leafy green covering) checking the tips of each ear, put about a dozen back before they pick "the perfect one". How many tens of thousands of pounds of avocados would go to waste (and thousands of ears of corn) using this method? When they next person comes along are they going to select that one? Nope. I am speaking as someone who designs organic farms & gardens, has started and managed an organic produce section of health store, worked in another, worked in a non-profit that saved 10,000 to 12,000 lbs. of food per week (from bakeries, deli, produce departments, etc. (30-40 places weekly) that would have gone to waste and re-distributed to 35-40 charities, head start school, church free meal, migrant camp workers, etc. Things like yogurt up to expiration date, "imperfect" bread with a dimple in loaf, apple with a spot, corn with ears peeled back, etc. There are WAY BETTER ways to select avocados (and corn) that what she is sharing.
