Ideal for a quick lunch or dinner, this classic dish is ready in just 10 minutes. We’ve used only a little mayonnaise here—just enough to hold the tuna salad together—so that the flavor of the other ingredients can shine. Roasted red peppers and kalamata olives add color and their own unique punch of flavor to this otherwise traditional tuna salad. Use the largest, outer leaves from the head of lettuce, and make sure the leaves are not torn or the filling could fall out. This meal is easy to take on the go too. Just pack the tuna salad in a separate container from the lettuce leaves to keep them fresh and crisp, and then fill them when you are ready to eat.
