If you love tuna and want a quick, cheap, and easy to prepare meal, this tuna salad recipe is for you. You can make this for lunch or dinner.
To keep it a quick and convenient meal, we prepare this with canned tuna. However, you can use fresh tuna steak to make it a delicious tuna tartare. It will taste even better.
To construct your tower, use a ring mold and place it in the center of a plate then add the salad layers. If you don’t have a circular mold, cut a middle of a water bottle or a soda bottle.
The height and thickness of your tuna salad tower is defined by the mold size (or bottle size) you use as a form.
You can sprinkle avocado with lemon juice and use salt and freshly ground black pepper as you prefer. You might also try our homemade mayo recipe instead of using the store-bought one.
