Ingredients

For the Tuna Salad

1 can can of tuna (preferably packed in water or olive oil)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (use an avocado-based mayo for a healthy twist)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon diced red onion
1 tablespoon chopped celery (for crunch)
to taste Salt and pepper

For the Wrap

Nori sheets seaweed wrap
1 sliced avocado (optional but highly recommended)
1 sliced cucumber or carrot (for added freshness and crunch)

Method

Preparation

Open the can of tuna and drain any excess liquid.
In a bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, diced red onion, and chopped celery. Mix well until you have a uniform texture.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

Assembly

Place a nori sheet on a clean, flat surface.
Spoon a portion of the tuna salad onto the lower third of the nori sheet, leaving some space along the edges.
If using, layer in some sliced avocado and cucumber or carrot for extra flavor and texture.
Carefully fold the nori sheet over the filling, tucking it tightly as you roll it up. Use a little water on the edge of the nori to seal it if needed.

Enjoy

Slice the rolled wrap into bite-sized pieces or enjoy it whole. These wraps can be served immediately or stored in the fridge for later.

Notes

Experiment with flavors by adding herbs like dill or parsley, or spices such as paprika or chili flakes for a flavour boost. You can try using other proteins like chicken or shredded beef instead of tuna to diversify your meals. Prepare the tuna salad in advance and store it until assembling your wraps to keep the nori crispy.
