# Expert Suggestions:

01 -

It tastes like you spent way more effort than you actually did, which is basically the definition of a perfect weekday meal.
The whole thing comes together in less time than it takes to order delivery, and you'll feel genuinely good about what you're eating.
Those crispy lettuce leaves are sturdy enough to hold everything without falling apart, so you can eat these with your hands without the usual wrap disaster.

02 -

If your lettuce leaves tear when you're filling them, you've either used too much filling or the leaves were too cold and brittle—let them sit at room temperature for a minute before handling them.
The tuna salad will taste better on day two because all the flavors meld together, so don't hesitate to make this ahead and assemble wraps fresh when you're ready to eat.
