Tuna Avocado Brown Rice Bowls

This simple tuna salad is tossed with avocado, cucumber, feta, red onions, herbs and a zippy lemon-sumac dressing and served over brown rice. Easy to make in about 30 minutes and always SO delicious.

Tuna Avocado Brown Rice Bowls

Seriously my dream lunch (or dinner!) salad, right here. ♡

This Mediterranean-inspired tuna salad comes together super-easily in the time it takes to cook a batch of brown rice, and always somehow tastes like so much more than the sum of its parts. It’s made with a simple mix of canned tuna, creamy avocado, crunchy cucumber, crisp red onions, a sprinkling of feta and herbs (I’m partial to fresh dill here, but you’ve got options). Then everything is tossed in a zippy lemon-sumac-cumin dressing and served over brown rice. And whether you then serve the salad up warm — or pack it away in the fridge for lunch the next day — every bite promises to be so flavorful and satisfying.

I love this recipe because it’s one of those salads that’s hearty without feeling too heavy. It’s naturally gluten-free and can also be dairy-free, if you nix the cheese. It’s easy to meal prep in advance. And of course, it’s also endlessly customizable in whatever ways you need. Feel free, for example, to swap in another fish or protein if tuna isn’t your thing (although I have to say it is delicious here). And while we love serving this salad over chewy brown rice here in our home, you could easily swap in another type of rice, quinoa, farro, orzo, or any other base that may sound good.

Let’s make some tuna avocado salad bowls!
