I got back late from work tonight and was looking for something quick and healthy, I still had some of my avocado salsa left from Monday night (see spicy salmon recipe), so I decided to mix it with a tin of fresh tuna, quickly griddled my leftover Aubergines and voila, a lovely tasty healthy dinner. It was yummy.

 

Salsa recipe:-

1/2 avocado – cut into slices/chunks

lime juice from 1 lime

1/2 red onion finely chopped

1 tsp olive oil

1 tbsp coriander

  1. Mix all in a bowl and serve.

 

Slice Aubergine about 1cm thick, rub with oil and griddle for approx 2-3 mins each side.

 

Enjoy!
