Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, sugar-free mayonnaise, red onion (if using), cilantro or parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix well until combined.
- Scoop out a small amount of avocado flesh from each half to create a well, being careful not to break the skin.
- Divide the tuna mixture evenly between the two avocado halves, mounding it slightly.
- Optionally, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the tuna mixture in each avocado boat.
- If using cheese, broil for 1-2 minutes until melted and bubbly, or enjoy as is for a no-cook option.

Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a squeeze of fresh lime juice to the tuna mixture. Make sure your avocado is ripe for the best texture and flavor. These boats are best enjoyed fresh.
