Lettuce Wraps

Looking for a low-carb recipe that's good to go for a light dinner, in-between snack and high in protein - that isn't just chicken! Haha!

I used tinned salmon in brine for these babies, but you can sub the salmon with tuna!

I just want to say I was really surprised to realise how filling they were. I was preparing to add some carbs as well and I didn't even feel the need to.

Classic butter lettuce works best for wrapping, I bought a packet from Woolworths for R19,00 and one can probably make 25 of them or more. So I would say this is definitely a super budget friendly recipe! #winning

Ingredients you'll need:

1 tin of tuna in brine/salmon in brine

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 tbsp vegan mayo/B-well vegan mayo (These two are the best mayo's I know of)

1 tsp paprika (I used smoked sweet paprika from Nomu, Woolworths has a sweet one as well)

1 tsp garlic flakes

2 tbsp plain yogurt

chopped rosa tomatoes & cucumber as much as you like

salt & pepper to taste

classic butter lettuce leaves

Instructions:

1. Mix all the ingredients together except for the lettuce.

2. Add some chopped rosa cherry tomatoes and cucumber to the filling mix.

3. Mix all well.

4. Add about 1 tbsp of the filling to the middle of one lettuce wrap and roll it just like one would do with a normal wrap/pancake.
