Skipped the lettuce cups portion but this was delicious twist to tuna salad!!
Recipe by Our Best Bites – serves 1

2.6-ounce pouch chunk white tuna
2 green onions, chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill (reduce to 1/2 teaspoon if using dry dill)
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
3 mild, foldable lettuce leaves (like butter or Boston bibb lettuce)
1/2 cup cucumber, peeled and sliced (baby cucumbers don’t have to be peeled unless you want to)
1 tablespoon sliced almonds

Instructions:
Combine the tuna, green onions, dill, garlic, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Add the mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. Divide evenly among the lettuce leaves, then top with cucumbers, sliced almonds, and additional thinly sliced green onion tops (if desired).
