These are a delicious, light, low-calorie, low-carb substitute for a tuna wrap sandwich! In place of the tortilla in a classic wrap sandwich, try to use lettuce leaves that are larger and free of tears or holes. Even a small amount of cheese adds a lot of flavor.

Reviews
Very basic tuna salad mix, but once combined with the lettuce and cheese, it works! I did find the tuna extremely dry (even with using oil-packed tuna), so I ended up using at least double the mayo called for. It was enough to stuff 2 romaine leaves, so whether it makes 3 servings is up to you. For me it made the perfect sized lunch.
