mexico & curry tuna wraps.

Thanks so much for your lovely wishes!! Our little lemon drop has already brought us so much happiness, J and I are constantly giggling and taking peeks at my growing belly :)

We're celebrating of sorts with a trip to Rivera Maya, Mexico next week, we figure it's a perfect time to get away during my second trimester and before J's busy wedding photography season starts full force. Things can get pretty hectic at our house in the summers with J juggling two jobs, so we're planning on enjoying every minute of Mexico!

I took this week off of work too and i've been spending most of my time in the kitchen and outdoors in the garden, my two favorite spots. Today for lunch I made curry tuna wraps, a recipe that my good friend Claudia introduced me to when we were roommates back in the day. I've been making them ever since, it's such a quick and easy meal, not to mention super healthy and super delicious too. I love Indian spices so if I can incorporate them into my every day meals then i'm a happy camper.


Curry tuna wraps (makes 4 wraps)

4 tortilla wraps
2 cans of dolphin friendly tuna (drained)
3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
1 tablespoon of curry powder (add according to your taste buds!)
1 generous handful of fresh raisins
Additional mayonnaise to spread on wraps (optional)

** In a bowl combine all your ingredients. Spread on wraps, roll them up, serve with a summer salad and enjoy!

  20. Hello there,
    I came up with the idea to put together a cookbook which I will sell the PDF file for and all the money will go to the Hurricane Sandy Victims relief Funds. The name of the book is " 25 Things to do with canned Tuna and other non-perishable food recipes" to go along with the hurricane theme and the fact that people always buy tuns of canned food before a hurricane and then what do you do with it afterwards? I did a search for creative tuna recipes and found yours and would like to include it in the book and of course give you credit and link it all back to your About.com web page. I cannot offer you compensation as the book is a fundraiser but I will send you a free copy of the PDF file and of course anyone who purchases it will be able to link directly to your page so it could increase traffic! Hope you will consider allowing me to use this and if you have any other tuna recipes perhaps you could share those with me too. Thanks so much. My personal email address is sharonbfuentes@hotmail.com
