Healthy Avocado Tuna Rugbrød Sandwich
Avocado, the super food, is packed with great nutrients, for example potassium, vitamin C, K, B5, B6 and E. Avocados are 0 cholesterol and low in saturated fat. According to the NHANES survey, people who eat avocados regularly tend to be healthier - weighed less, have a lower BMI, have less belly fat and have higher levels of “good” HDL cholesterol.
For the mentioned reasons above, I'm into the bandwagon of avocado eating. Unfortunately avocados are not cheap, so I will buy avocados only when they are on sales. I will buy the supply that could last me for a week.
My all time favourite avocado recipe is the creamy avocado tuna spread. These spread are so simple to make and taste super good. You can have the spread with toasts, crackers or even pasta. I usually make a big bowl and store in the freezer. It can last me for 2 days, 4 meals in total. Check out the recipe below.
Ingredients
2 ripe avocados
1 canned tuna
1 small shallot (thinly sliced)
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
sesame seeds (optional)
Add all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and give a good mix. Spread the avocado tuna spread on to your favourite breads or crackers. You can either mix the sesame seeds into your spread or you may just sprinkle them on top of your sandwich as garnish before serving. I like the nutty taste and the fragrant of sesame seeds; therefore I am very generous with the amount used for my spread. Super tasty :)
