Mediterranean Tuna Wrap

[RoyalOrleans]

Do you like tuna? I love tuna. I must have it for lunch thrice a week.

 

2 (6-ounce) cans chunk light tuna in water, drained well

1/4 cup finely diced red onion

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

1/4 cup chopped calamata olives

3 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

6 cups pre-washed mixed greens (about 3 ounces)

4 whole-grain wrap breads (about 2 ounces each)

2 large tomatoes, sliced

 

 

In a medium bowl combine the tuna, onion, parsley, olives.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Pour about 2/3 the dressing over the tuna mixture and toss to combine. In a separate bowl, pour the rest of the dressing over the greens and toss to combine.

 

Place some tuna salad onto each piece of wrap bread. Top with 1 1/2 cups of greens and a few tomato slices. Roll the wraps and serve.

 

On a side note: A loose translation of Mediterranean is "Middle Earth".

This sounds really good, even though I'm not a fan of canned fish.

Yeah... it's not bad at all.

 

A few years ago, I pulled the recipe from the Food Network's website. As I was looking for different things to do with tuna, salmon, etc.

 

It's suprisingly refreshing!

Tuna steaks. Yum..

I love tuna steak. It's the best fish anywhere because it dosn't taste like fish.

Oh god! I love grilled tuna steaks!

 

Speaking of tuna, I love salmon just as much!

 

I need to post a few more recipes. My mom has a great marinade recipe for grilled tuna or salmon.

I love grilled salmon with just lemon juice and spinkle of dill. Nothing else. Makes me a very happy girl.

 

And I tried RO's recipe and brought it to work and all the girls had to have some.

Did you get my email? How to make Pearl Jam?

[manicmonday]

I did, and I think it requires hands on training. For the sake of science.
