Avocado Tuna Salad Lettuce Wrap

Since starting the SCD diet, tuna has been my "go-to" item for a quick snack or meal. An SCD follower needs to look out for tuna that contains only fish, water, and sea salt.  The conventional tuna in the store typically contains soy, which is genetically modified if it's not organic.

I've recently purchased some Wild Planet Wild Skip Jack Tuna, in bulk, on amazon for $.44/oz.  These links list some other options.

Looking around on Pinterest, I found a couple of recipe ideas that I was interested in, so I determined my base ingredients and then figured out what my add-ins would be based on what was available or what I felt like at the time.

Base Ingredients:
1 pouch/can of tuna
1 avocado
1 Tbsp SCD Yogurt
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 Lettuce Leaves

Possible Add Ins:
Fresh cilantro (5-finger pinch)
Honey
Crushed pineapple
Chopped grapes


Mix everything together until you get a creamy mixture.
Spoon onto lettuce leaves
Wrap and enjoy.


The only bad thing about this recipe is that I always want more!!
