Instructions
- 1
Trim the ends from each cucumber and cut them in half lengthwise. Use a small spoon or melon baller to scoop out the seeds and a shallow channel of flesh, leaving a sturdy 1/4-inch wall all around to form a stable boat. Pat the insides dry with a paper towel.

In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, coconut-based mayo, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, turmeric, and ginger. Break up any large chunks of tuna with a fork and stir until the mixture is evenly coated and holds together.
