Ingredients
  

1 (5 oz) can of tuna, drained

1 medium ripe avocado, mashed until creamy

1 tablespoon Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise for a classic taste)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard for a zesty kick

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 stalk of celery, finely chopped for crunch

1 small red onion, finely diced for sweetness

2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (or you can substitute with parsley)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

4 large, sturdy lettuce leaves (such as romaine or butter lettuce)

Optional toppings: thinly sliced cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, or thinly sliced radishes for an extra layer of flavor and texture

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, add the drained tuna and the mashed avocado. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients form a smooth and creamy combination.

    To the tuna and avocado mixture, add in the Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir well until all components are fully integrated and creamy.

      Gently fold in the finely chopped celery, diced red onion, and freshly chopped cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

        To create the wraps, lay a large lettuce leaf flat on a clean surface such as a cutting board or plate.

          Spoon a generous portion of the tuna salad mixture into the center of each lettuce leaf, ensuring there’s enough filling to create a satisfying wrap.

            Enhance the tuna salad with your choice of optional toppings, like crunchy cucumber slices, juicy halved cherry tomatoes, or fresh radish slices, for an added burst of flavor.

              Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling and roll it up snugly from the bottom to the top, securing the fillings inside.

                Repeat the rolling process with the remaining lettuce leaves and tuna salad mixture until all ingredients are used.

                  Serve your delicious wraps immediately, garnished with additional cilantro or a few lemon wedges on the side for an extra touch of freshness if desired!
