Tuna Fish Lettuce Wraps


Yesterday, I made Tuna Fish Lettuce Wraps! Yum!
My goal is to eat 1 carbohydrate, 1 protein, 1 fat and as many veggies as I can get 3 x a day, plus 1 snack. I have all my bases covered on this one.
Tuna- Protein
Orange-Carbohydrate
Mayo-Fat
Lettuce-Veggie

Makes 3-4 lettuce wraps.

What you will need:
3-4 Romaine Lettuce Leaves
1 Can Tuna Fish/Albacore (My cans are large, so if you are using grocery store cans, I would use 2)
1-2 Tlb. Light Mayo
3-4 baby dill pickles, diced.
About 1/4 tsp. Salt & Pepper to taste (add more or less, depending on taste for you).
1 Orange or Clement (You could also use any other fruit of interest. I just have a bunch of Clements).

How to make this:
Pull apart some Romaine Lettuce Leaves. Wash and pat dry with paper towel. Set aside.
Open can into glass bowl.
Add 1 Tlb. Mayo (I prefer light, you can add more if you like).
I like to add a couple baby dill pickles, chopped up. Little Salt & Pepper, to taste. (I like more pepper, then salt)
Mix all together.
Peel Orange.
Scoop 2-3 Tlb. Onto Lettuce leaf (or as much as you would like).

Enjoy!
