UnTuna Wraps

This is an amazingly easy, off the hook-tasty recipe. My sons say that the only thing missing from this tuna is the mercury — well put! My little girls asked me recently, “Mom, what is a tuna sandwich?” Although they have been enjoying this walnut and olive based recipe for years, it wasn’t until that moment that I realized they had nothing to compare it to, as they have never actually eaten a real tuna sandwich! After collecting myself, I replied, “it’s a fish.” They protested, “Why would you eat a fish?! That’s an animal!” I had to stop to ask myself the same question, why would I? Well, now you too can say so long to your classic tuna salad. It’s actually uncanny how much this dish indeed tastes like tuna ... and that’s a promise.
