Fast, easy and tasty, this raw mock tuna salad is great wrapped in lettuce leaves or eaten as is. You'll have everyone fooled and coming back for more
I am not a rawbie, raw foodist, or whatever we are calling them these days, but I am a big fan of meatless Mondays as well as lots of salads. My mission (and I choose to accept it at all times) is flavour favor. SO here we have a version of a ‘raw tuna’ salad filling. It is wonderful rolled in lettuce leaves, but to be honest you could use it in sandwiches, wraps of the more traditional kind if you really wanted, or just by itself with a fork. You can source the dulse flakes from my store, and they have free postage...so get dulsed. (I use them a lot...so you might as well go for it.)
Enjoy this recipe. And while I’m on the subject, don’t forget I have a vegetarian cookbook, The Convenient Vegetarian, available now. It is selling up a storm. A STORM I’m telling you...so go get yours. (No need to suffer from FOMO.)
