Tuna Cheesemelt Avocado Cups

Avocado or alligator pear was commonly used by the Mayas and Aztecs as early as 500 B.C. The first Europeans that learned about this unusually unsweet creamy fruit were the Spanish conquistadors who invaded the Central and South Americas in the 16th century. They liked avocado for its high protein and oily content and for a pretty battery taste as well. It took some time, but eventually the fruit was grown in Florida in 1833 for the first time. Though its popularity grew relatively slowly, the avocado has become widespread since the second half of 20th century. As a result the current consumption of the avocado only looking at the US reaches an unbelievable 140 million pounds a day which generally peaks on Super Bowl Sunday and the Chico de Mayo events.
