Avocado & Seared Ahi Tuna Rolls | Food52 + California Avocados

It’s lunchtime at blogger Kristina Cho’s Bay Area home and she’s making up something super-fresh—Avocado & Seared Ahi Tuna Rolls. Inspired by Vietnamese fresh spring rolls, she layers sesame-crusted tuna, crunchy cucumbers, crispy fried shallots, bright, sweet mint, and creamy California Avocados—and wraps ’em up in rice paper. The result: A sunny lunch (or dinner!), full of flavors and textures galore. This recipe is shared in partnership with California Avocados. GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/2ReIb4y
