Ingredients
½ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
½ cup diced celery
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 (5-ounce) cans salmon, drained, flaked, skin and bones removed
2 ripe avocados
Chopped chives, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, celery, parsley, lime juice, mayo, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
Add the flaked salmon and stir until fully combined.
Slice the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of avocado flesh from each half and mash it in a small bowl.
Stir the mashed avocado into the salmon mixture for extra creaminess.
Fill each avocado half with about ¼ cup of the salmon mixture, mounding it high.
Garnish with chopped chives if desired, and serve immediately!
Notes
Use ripe but firm avocados for best results.
Add a pinch of lemon or lime zest for extra brightness.
Swap Greek yogurt with mashed avocado or sour cream for a dairy-free version.
Keep the salmon mix chilled until ready to serve for the freshest taste.
