Notes
How to store this recipe
This recipe is best consumed the day you make it. However, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. If you’re going to keep it the maximum time, then I recommend adding the total amount of the lemon juice to prevent the avocado from browning. The avocado will brown slightly but, don’t worry, the tuna salad will still be tasty.
