Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 2-4 days in the fridge, but it's best served immediately because of the avocados
Make Ahead: You can make the tuna salad ahead of time. But for best results, cut the avocado and add it to the tuna salad mix right before you're ready to eat.
