Avocado Tuna Salad

Ok so I tried something out last night for Christina's lunch...

I took one 5 oz can of Bumble Bee Solid Albacore (in water) tuna; mixed it with 1/4 of a Haas avocado, 2 minced dill gherkins; 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes; 1/4 tsp onion powder; pinch of salt; pinch of black pepper; pinch of garlic powder; 1/4 tsp olive oil; 1 tbsp of red wine vinegar; 1 tsp of low fat mayonnaise (NOT miracle BLAH!)...
Mix all ingredients well making it very smooth...

You can add back into half of the avocado shell; top with thin sliced 1/4 of plum tomato; rest of other 1/4 part of avocado and alfalfa sprouts...or put mix in a wrap with tomato, alfalfa and avocado. If you like onion taste add a few thin slices of onion...
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
