TROPICAL TUNA STUFFED AVOCADO
Today’s Tropical Tuna Stuffed Avocado is the perfect, protein packed lunch or snack that can be made on-the-go or at your desk at work. The tropical flavors of mango, cilantro and lime juice are mixed with Chicken of the Sea® Solid White Albacore in Water {or oil} in EZ-Open Cans , Greek yogurt, vegetables and then stuffed in an avocado.
You can easily make the tropical salad ahead of time at home and then add the solid white albacore tuna when you are ready to eat and then stuff it into your avocado when you are ready to eat it. Chicken of the Sea now has new EZ-Open Cans that are not only convenient, but a time saving option for busy families. In response to consumer demand for greater in-kitchen and on-the-road convenience, the San Diego seafood provider, Chicken of the Sea, became the first major brand to offer cans with easy-open, pull-tab lids across multiple seafood product lines simultaneously.
I love how easy these cans are to bring with you on-the-go or at work. I eat sold white albacore once a week in a variety of recipes from tuna mac and cheese, to Italian Style Tuna Salad to this Tropical Tuna Stuffed Avocado. I know you all lead busy lifestyles and now you can take the healthy seafood you love wherever you go without brining along a can opener!
Five of Chicken of the Sea’s most popular products will be available in cans with pull-tab lids marketed under the new EZ-Open label, with more products planned. The enhanced line can be found at supermarkets nationwide.
- Chicken of the Sea® Solid White Albacore in Water in EZ-Open Cans (5 oz.)
- Chicken of the Sea® Solid White Albacore in Water in EZ-Open Cans (7 oz.)
- Chicken of the Sea® Solid White Albacore in Oil in EZ-Open Cans (5 oz.)

Not only do I love adding tuna and salmon to meals but I love using avocados. Avocados provide numerous health benefits, as they are naturally rich in nutrients and contain nearly 20 vitamins and minerals, including vitamins C, E, K, and B-6. Avocados are also an excellent source of healthy mono- and polyunsaturated fats, as well as omega-3s, which are beneficial for cardiovascular health. Avocados are also an excellent source of riboflavin, magnesium, potassium, lutein and beta-carotene.
You can feel good about eating a Tropical Tuna Stuffed Avocado for lunch or a snack. The tropical tuna salad is also great on sandwiches if avocados aren’t your thing. Just make the salad and spread it on your favorite toast or bread.
Chicken of the Sea also has a fun game they are hosting right now. The Pull It Off Game features a virtual “kitchen” setting in an online game where players try to grab a Chicken of the Sea can as it revolves on a Lazy Susan Table.
Chicken of the Sea is giving consumers the chance to win $25,000 worth of instant prizes simply for playing the Pull It Off game and grabbing the correct EZ-Open can. Consumers are able to play once per day and have three chances to grab the EZ-Open can for a chance to win prizes. Prizes will be offered in the form of mobile-friendly digital gift cards. The Pull It Off Game goes live on October 13- November 12 on Chicken of the Sea’s Facebook page .
