Don’t know what to take with you for a healthy and easy work lunch? It’s the ultimate problem, isn’t it? Ok maybe not the ultimate, but it is definitely tough to get creative and mix it up when it comes to work lunch. Salad and sandwich ruts are a real problem, y’all! Introducing: The BEST ever On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps, comin’ at ya 2 different ways!
These On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps (2 Ways) are perfect for taking to work for lunch!
Why? Because they’re the MOST delicious, easy to put together, and loaded with goodness!
TBH, lunch is always a little bit of a struggle for me because I’m right in the middle of my workday. I know what I’m making for dinner, breakfast is almost always a Granola & Yogurt Bowl, but lunch? Sometimes part of a recipe, sometimes a salad, but sometimes a frozen meal or PB&J. Hey, it’s life, right? REAL life! And eating right at lunch is 50/50 for me, especially during busy seasons of life.
Thankfully, these On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps are making it easier as I resolve to eat better! They’re so convenient, delicious, and are really mixing things up 😉 The best, y’all!
Here’s what you’ll need to make these On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps:
- Romaine lettuce leaves
- chickpeas (I always purchase organic and canned)
- cucumber
- red pepper
- any other veggies you want to add
- Bumble Bee® Seasoned Tuna Pouches with Spoons
There are so many delicious flavors of these Seasoned Tuna Pouches! Have you tried them?? They’re absolutely the best for post-workout snacks (hellllloooo, protein), afternoon snacks, and in this case, taking to work for a quick lunch on-the-go!
Literally: take the spoon out, open the Seasoned Tuna Pouch, and enjoy delicious tuna straight out of the package! So convenient.
For these On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps, we used the Spicy Thai Chili and Lemon & Pepper. Both added their own unique flavors and were amazing variations to the lettuce wraps!
Here’s the recipe for these On-The-Go Tuna Lettuce Wraps (2 Ways)!
