4. Place lettuce leaf on each tortilla, spread with 1/4 of the tuna mixtureand roll up. Slice into 3 pieces if desired. Wrap and keep inrefrigerator until serving time.
Helpful Hints: Put the can of tuna in the refrigerator the night beforemaking the sandwiches so ingredients are cold. The lemon juice keeps the diced apple from turning brown and adds a nice tart flavor.To save time, dice the celery, chop the nuts and wash the lettuce the nightbefore.
Canned tuna is pre-cooked tuna that's packaged in water or oil. It comes inthree grades. The top grade is called "fancy" or "solid." The medium grade is called "chunk" and lowest grade is called "grated" or "flaked." The differenceis in the price. Choose water-packed for fewer calories.Tuna Twists are kid-friendly because kids can choose the "parts." Cannedchicken instead of tuna; whole wheat bread, bagels or crackers can hold thefilling; and different fruits or vegetables add the crunch!
