Tuna Salad in Lettuce Cups

Tuna Salad in Lettuce Cups
I don’t have a whole lot of produce in my refrigerator right now, but I DO have this adorable little head of Boston lettuce.

When you peel off the leaves, they look just like little cups!

So, I whipped up some quick tuna salad with a can of chunk white tuna, a little reduced-fat mayo, relish, pickle juice, and diced red onion. Then I put a spoonful in each little leaf and served them up with some sweet pickles and a handful of reduced-fat Cape Cod potato chips.

It was satisfying and salty – just what I felt like:)

Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain bowl. Broiled salmon takes 10-15 minutes. Put it over red rice (cooked in rice cooker while I put the baby to bed), and topped with cucumber,  avocado, toasted sesame seeds, seaweed, and wasabi with teriyaki sauce. Inspired by @skinnytaste and @heatherkjonesrd Seattle salmon.

Made this from scratch after putting the baby to sleep so while it looks like a lot of time, it wasn’t! What you see: Lemon-garlic marinated chicken, sautéed mushrooms, maple roasted carrots, roast sweet potatoes, and pre-washed spinach on brown rice with TJ’s green goddess dressing.
