Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (5 oz each) Canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 3 tablespoons Whole30-compliant mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Celery (finely diced)
- 1 tablespoon Green onion (finely chopped)
- 1 whole Cucumber (large, for wrapping)
- 1 whole Avocado (sliced)
- 1 medium Carrot (julienned)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice (fresh)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, Whole30-compliant mayonnaise, finely diced celery, chopped green onion, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well until fully combined and set aside.
Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin, wide strips. These will act as the 'wrap' for the tuna rolls.
Place a cucumber slice on a clean surface. Gently pat it dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
On one end of the cucumber slice, layer a small portion of the tuna mixture, a strip of julienned carrot, and a slice of avocado.
Carefully roll the cucumber slice up tightly around the filling, similar to rolling sushi. Secure the roll with a toothpick, if needed.
Repeat the process with the remaining cucumber slices and filling ingredients until all the tuna mixture is used.
Arrange the cucumber tuna rolls on a serving platter. Remove any toothpicks before serving, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Tuna Rolls as a light, healthy meal or snack!
