Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (approx. 5 oz each) Canned tuna
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Celery, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 8 sheets Gluten-free rice paper
- 8 small Lettuce leaves
- 1 Avocado, sliced
Instructions
1. Drain the canned tuna and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
2. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, finely chopped celery, and red onion to the bowl with the tuna.
3. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, and then add the lemon juice.
4. Mix all the ingredients until well combined. Set aside.
5. Fill a large shallow dish, like a pie plate, with warm water. Dip one rice paper sheet into the water for 5-10 seconds or until it begins to soften. Remove it and place it on a clean kitchen towel.
6. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom third of the softened rice paper.
7. Place a few spoonfuls of the tuna mixture on top of the lettuce leaf, ensuring it's spread evenly.
8. Add a couple of slices of avocado on top of the tuna mixture.
9. Carefully fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling and then roll it up tightly from the bottom.
10. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make the additional rolls.
11. Serve immediately for the best texture; these rolls are great on their own or with a gluten-free dipping sauce of your choice.
