Detailed Steps
- Prepare the filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the drained and flaked tuna with the diced avocados. Add the Greek yoghurt, lime juice, chopped coriander, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
- Prepare the bell peppers: Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. Rinse and pat dry with a kitchen towel.
- Fill the peppers: Spoon the prepared tuna and avocado mixture into each bell pepper half, distributing the filling evenly. Be generous with the filling to make each pepper half a satisfying portion.
- Serve or store: Arrange the stuffed bell peppers on a serving platter. They can be served immediately for a fresh and zesty appetiser or chilled in the refrigerator for a cold, refreshing snack later. Enjoy with a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc for a perfect pairing.
