Cooking Tips
🐟 Tuna
- Sear tuna steaks for just 1-2 minutes per side for a perfect rare center.
- Canned tuna in olive oil has better flavor than water-packed.
- Mix canned tuna with avocado instead of mayo for a healthier tuna salad.
Nutrition: High in protein and omega-3s. Canned light tuna is lower in mercury than albacore.
Storage: Use fresh tuna within 1-2 days. Canned tuna lasts 2-5 years.
🥑 Avocado
- Check ripeness by pressing gently near the stem — it should give slightly.
- Add lime or lemon juice to cut avocado to prevent browning.
- Store unripe avocados with a banana in a paper bag to speed up ripening.
Nutrition: Rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, potassium, and fiber. Half an avocado has about 160 calories.
