Ingredients
  

1 can (5 oz) tuna, drained (preferably packed in olive oil for added flavor)

1/2 cup cucumber, finely diced

1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup mayonnaise (or use Greek yogurt for a lighter option)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Salt and pepper, to taste

8 large leaves of butter or romaine lettuce, washed and dried

1 ripe peach, pitted and diced

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon ginger paste (or freshly grated ginger for a fresher taste)

1 teaspoon olive oil

Chopped fresh cilantro or sliced scallions for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peach Glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced peach, honey, soy sauce, ginger paste, and olive oil. Cook for approximately 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are tender and the mixture begins to thicken. Once thickened, remove from heat and allow to cool.

    Make the Tuna Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, diced cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, ensuring the mixture is flavorful and well-balanced.

      Assemble the Lettuce Wraps: Lay a lettuce leaf on a plate and spoon a generous amount of the tuna mixture into the center. Drizzle a portion of the prepared peach glaze over the tuna mixture to enhance the flavor.

        Garnish: If desired, sprinkle with chopped cilantro or sliced scallions on top of the tuna mixture for a burst of fresh flavor.

          Serve: Carefully fold the lettuce leaf around the filling to create a wrap. Serve immediately, drizzled with additional peach glaze if desired. Enjoy the refreshing combination of flavors in every bite!
