Italian Style Tuna Salad in a Wrap - Lightened!

A freshing twist on tuna salad - Italian style!

This is not your ordinary tuna salad your mom made for you as a kid.  Not our mom anyway.  This is a tuna salad she has been making for years,  using fresh vegetables, fresh lemon juice and a touch of mayo making it lower in calories and lower in fat!  

The taste is delicious with a light crunch and a citrius-y punch to it. This tuna salad is colorful and refreshing. It's terrific for those days you want something easy to make.  Great with toasted french baquette or serve it as a tuna wrap in a Mulit-Grain Flour Tortillas.

I love these Multi-Grain soft taco tortillas because you get 4 grams of whole grain per serving, with 0 grams of trans-fat and additional 4 grams of protein.  A great way to get some whole grains with your meal.   Enjoy!
