FAQ

  • Can I make this ahead of time?

    It's best to assemble the lettuce wraps just before serving to prevent the lettuce from getting soggy. However, you can prepare the spicy tuna mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • What if I don't have Whole30 compliant sriracha?

    You can use a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper for a similar spicy kick. You can also look for Whole30 sriracha recipes online to make your own.
  • Can I add other vegetables?

    Absolutely! Diced cucumber, shredded carrots, or even sprouts would be great additions.
