Ingredients
  

1 can (5 oz) tuna in water, drained

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and black pepper, to taste

8 large leaves of romaine or butter lettuce

1/4 cup cucumber, diced

1/4 cup bell pepper, diced (choose red or yellow for sweetness)

1/4 cup shredded carrots

1/4 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberry Glaze: In a small blender or food processor, add the sliced strawberries, honey, and balsamic vinegar. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld while you prepare the tuna filling.

    Mix the Tuna Filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped dill, garlic powder, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Use a fork to mix thoroughly until the mixture is creamy and all ingredients are well incorporated.

      Prep the Lettuce Leaves: Rinse the lettuce leaves gently under cold water to clean them, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Arrange them neatly on a clean plate, ready for assembly.

        Assemble the Wraps: Take one lettuce leaf at a time and place a generous scoop of the tuna mixture in the center. Top the tuna with diced cucumber, colorful bell pepper, and shredded carrots for a crunchy texture.

          Drizzle with Strawberry Glaze: Lightly spoon a portion of the strawberry glaze over the tuna filling, adding a sweet and tangy kick to the wraps.

            Wrap and Serve: Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose everything securely. Repeat this process with the remaining leaves and filling. Serve the wraps with extra strawberry glaze on the side for dipping or drizzling.
