Ingredients

  • 2 5 oz. cans tuna
  • 2 tbsp. mayonnaise
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ avocado sliced
  • ½ lemon juiced
  • 2 tbsp. capers
  • 2 tbsp. red onion diced
  • ¼ cup diced celery
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • romaine lettuce leaves

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, mash tuna. Add lemon juice, capers, diced celery, diced red onion, mayo, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Refrigerate until ready to use and then carefully scoop tuna mixture on to washed lettuce leaves. Top with sliced avocado and cherry tomatoes.
  • Wrap like a taco or burrito and enjoy.

Notes

  • Depending on your brand of canned tuna, you may or may not need to drain it. It should say on the can itself. 
  • Double the recipe and enjoy the rest for lunch the next day. There isn't much extra prep work involved and you'll thank yourself later. 
  • Chop everything up pretty small to avoid anything being larger than bite sized.
