Ingredients 🥑

For the Tuna Salad

2 cans (5 oz each) tuna, drained
3 tablespoons mayonnaise (preferably avocado oil mayo)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

For the Wraps

8 large lettuce leaves (romaine, butter lettuce, or iceberg)
½ avocado, sliced
¼ cup cucumber slices
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions 👩‍🍳

1. Prepare the Tuna

Open the tuna cans and drain them well. Transfer the tuna to a medium mixing bowl and gently break it apart with a fork until flaky.

2. Make the Dressing

Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and fresh lemon juice to the tuna. Stir everything together until the mixture becomes creamy and evenly combined.

3. Add Crunch and Flavor

Mix in the chopped celery, diced red onion, and parsley. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir again until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

4. Taste and Adjust

Taste the tuna salad and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add more lemon juice for brightness or a little extra mayonnaise for a creamier texture.

5. Assemble the Wraps

Lay the lettuce leaves flat on a plate or cutting board. Spoon a generous portion of the tuna salad onto the center of each leaf.

6. Add Toppings

Top each wrap with sliced avocado, cucumber slices, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese if desired.

7. Wrap and Serve

Fold the lettuce around the filling like a taco or wrap. Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh keto meal.

Tips for the Best Keto Tuna Wraps ⭐

Use sturdy lettuce: Romaine or iceberg holds the filling better.
Drain tuna well: Too much liquid makes the salad watery.
Chill for better flavor: Let the tuna salad sit in the fridge for 20 minutes before serving.
Add crunch: Chopped pickles or sunflower seeds are great additions.

Flavor Variations 🔥

Spicy Keto Tuna Wraps

Add ½ teaspoon chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce.

Mediterranean Style

Mix in olives, feta cheese, and a little olive oil.

Avocado Tuna Salad

Replace mayonnaise with mashed avocado for a creamy, dairy-free option.

Storage Tips 🥶

Store tuna salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Keep lettuce separate until serving so the wraps stay crisp.
