I found a recipe called Crab and Avocado Duet, used mostly the same ingredients but changed how I put them together. This is very good. I particularly like it because it has no oil and no mayonnaise. This is a light lunch; you can bulk it up with crackers or bread.
Avocado is soluble fiber but it is also high in fat.
Seafood in Avocado
For 2 servings:
Ingredients
1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/8 teaspoon salt Pinch white pepper about 1 tablespoon chopped chives (used green onion, white and green parts)
1/4 pound cooked seafood (the original recipes calls for lump crabmeat; this is super expensive so I used boiled shrimp, chopped fairly fine, instead; I bet I could use cooked tilapia or any other white fish also)
1 ripe avocado
Directions
In a bowl big enough to hold everything except the avocado, whisk together 1 Tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/8 teaspoon salt, pinch of white pepper, and 1 Tablespoon chopped chives/green onion. Add seafood (crabmeat, shrimp, fish) and toss.
Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Place in a bowl or on a plate large enough to catch overflow. Split the seafood mixture between the two avocado halves, piling it in the hole where the pit was.

Caution is avocados - they contain sorbitol - a sugar alcohol - a high FODMAP and proven/known potential IBS trigger

Problematic for some, not all. If you're not super sorbitol sensitive, and considering avocados are usually eaten in small amounts, give it a try.
