Avocado
3 minHalve the avocado, remove the pit, and mash the flesh with the lemon juice using a fork.
Tuna
5 minDrain the tuna thoroughly and flake it with a fork. Stir it into the avocado along with the finely chopped scallions, salt, and pepper.
Serve
Serve the spread immediately on bread or rolls, or with cucumber slices.
Tip: Make the spread just before serving—even with lemon juice, the avocado will brown over time when exposed to air.
