    Healthy and delicious appetizer

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This was the perfect appetizer for a Friday night during Lent! Although when I make it again, I will drizzle the oil into the... center of each individual leaf so that this will truly be finger food with no mess.Read more

    Simply amazing!!!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My brother and I really wanted to make this. we had a hard time finding the right tuna, but we finally found it at HEB. i... started off without the capers, which i didnt think i would like, but after my first wrap I knew something was missing. I pit a few capers on it and it turned into one of the greatest things Alton has come up with. I tried saving money the next time by buying the regular tuna and using olive oil but it was not the same. I will defiantly make this again!Read more

    easy and great tasting

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is great in place of a regular salad to go along with a dinner. The reserved oil is plenty of dressing for the... individual servings.Read more
