Seafood stuffed avocados
Seafood stuffed avocados is a dish where ripe avocados are halved and filled with a mixture of cooked seafood, such as shrimp or crab, mixed with mayonnaise, herbs, and seasonings. This tasty combination creates a creamy and flavorful filling that pairs perfectly with the buttery texture of the avocado. It's a great option for a light and refreshing meal or appetizer.
