Simply chop your fruit I served my tuna salad in collard wraps and believe it or not, this was my first time eating collard leaves. I've always used romaine or cabbage leaves as wraps. Do NOT skip the oranges or mango (actually I had to skip the mango due to an allergy) because the sweet really pulls this dish together. I actually added a few fresh squeezes of orange juice to the dressing and would do that again. I also just seared my small tuna steaks whole and then sliced them.
