Simple and Hearty Tuna Wraps 
I forget how delicious, healthy and filling tuna salad can be for us. I skipped toasting whole wheat bread slices this time and filled a few large spinach leaves instead. YUMMO! I was completely satisfied.
"Now I'm strong to the finish, cuz I eats my spinach.
I'm Popeye the sailor man! TOOT TOOT!"
I don't know where that came from? Let's move on.
HERE'S MY FAVORITE COMBINATION
- 1 (12 ounce) can Solid White Albacore Tuna
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup chopped broccoli
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/2 cup chopped apple
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- salt & pepper to taste
- fresh spinach leaves, rinsed clean
Drain tuna well. Mix all ingredients in a medium size bowl. Spoon enough tuna to fill a spinach leaf.
You're ready to chow down!
I grabbed an extra handful of spinach leaves and put them on the side, like chips and enjoyed the extra dark leafy goodness they offered. I don't think anyone has ever gone wrong eating extra spinach.
Oh Jill, that looks yummy. I go in cycles with tuna and I haven’t had it in a while. Now I’m wishing I’d brought some for lunch!
Looks delish! Think I’ll make this for lunch today!
I’ll be right over!
This is genius! I would love to use this recipe on my blog and link back to you. Let me know if that would be ok.
Totally fine, Gina. Thank you for asking!
I just fixed this today. My hubby came home for lunch and LOVED it!!! I added some finely chopped green onion and sprinkled dill weed once presented on the platter. I did substitute canned chicken breast for the tuna as I need the tuna for a dinner recipe :0) But, it was just fabulous!!! Thank you so very much for sharing this.
Oh yeah, and I steamed the broccoli for about 6 mins to soften/green it up some.
Bobbi, sounds like you created a whole new delicious recipe. ;D
Let me get this straight. You put together,
* 1 can of cooked white chicken
* finely chopped green onion
* 1/4 cup chopped celery
* 1/4 cup chopped broccoli, steamed
* 1/4 cup golden raisins
* 1/2 cup chopped apple
* 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
* 1/2 cup mayonnaise
* salt & pepper to taste
All mixed together, then filled the
* fresh spinach leaves, rinsed clean
* topped with chopped dill weed
Is that right?
I made it with tuna changing it slightly, next i’ll make it with crab meat!
