This is from "Cuisines of Portuguese Encounters", in which the author gives the recipes for things she has sampled in Portugal and its former colonies. I haven't made it yet.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 large avocados (ripe)
1 (6 ounce) can tuna
1/2 cup freshly-grated coconut (or fresh frozen)
3/4 cup evaporated milk
3 tablespoons tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 lemons, quartered

Directions

1
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and plulp; don't tear the shells.
2
Cut the pulp into small pieces. Put in a bowl. Add tuna, grated coconut (except 1 T.), evaporated milk and tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
3
Stuff the shells with the tuna filling. Sprinkle with the remaining grated coconut. Serve with lemon quarters on the side.
