Drain water from the can of tuna. In a bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, 1 TB cilantro and 1 TB lime juice. Season to taste.

Place diced avocado in a bowl and add a TB of lime juice, leaving some chunks.

Prepare tomato mixture: In a separate bowl, combine chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, lime juice and garlic powder. Stir to combine.

On two separate plates (1 serving each) make a layer with the diced avocado, using a hamburger mold to keep the round shape of the stack. Then layer half of the tuna mixture on top of the avocado. Top with a fresh layer of the tomato mixture (pico de gallo).
