KITCHEN MISADVENTURE SERIES – EGG N TUNA LETTUCE WRAP

The hubby arrived late last night from a short overnight trip to Baguio and, of course, aside from the usual strawberries and ube jam pasalubong, he brought home one of our family’s favourite vegetable – the lettuce. He brought home two kinds – the iceberg and the much healthier romaine...and so for dinner tonight I decided to make/add this egg-tuna salad with lettuce wrap. This dish is relatively easy to make and is just like your usual egg-tuna sandwich dressing with chopped white onions, chopped hardboiled eggs, tuna flakes (without the oil), mayonnaise, plain yogurt, some salt, pepper and sugar. Then, the hard white parts of the lettuce is cut off, washed and served with the egg-tuna mixture on the side. To eat or serve, the egg-tuna mixture is placed inside the lettuce, then the leaf is rolled much like pita bread and then entire thing is eaten like a burrito – a healthy one at that!
