You know the randomly picky feeling you get some days when you're hungry, and you actually have a specific meal you brought with you or prepped for the day, but you don't have a taste for that particular meal? This happens to me about two times a week during lunch time. Ha! I always search the pantry and refrigerator for something else I can quickly throw together for a more appetizing meal at the moment. 

For the last few weeks, my go to substitute meal, has been tuna salad lettuce wraps. Once upon a time, when I wasn't trying to lose weight, I would've made a delicious, calorie packed tuna melt. Since I don't have the luxury of eating whatever I want and not gaining weight I decided to get creative and find a way to still eat my delicious salad with a healthier alternative to bread. The first time I used an alternative, I used the Kellogg's Special K Sea Salt Cracker Chips, and used them as scoops for the tuna salad. It was good, but it still wasn't what I was looking for. The following week, I had bought a fresh head of iceberg lettuce from the commissary (grocery store) the day before, and decided to try lettuce wraps in place of the bread and crackers. It was delicious! I immediately knew this would be a future blog post recipe. I specifically wanted to do it for a Spring time recipe because of how fresh and light this meal is. It is also a quick meal which means you have more time to go out and enjoy the outdoors vs. cooking for an hour or two. An added plus, my two-year-old toddler LOVES this meal too. However, like most little ones, she prefers the sea salt cracker chips vs. the fresh lettuce wrap. 🙂
