Ingredients
Scale
Tuna Mixture
- 1 can skipjack tuna, 5 oz (or yellowfin)
- 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt
- ½ Tbsp Dijon mustard (or regular mustard)
- ½ lemon, juice of (about 1 Tbsp)
- ¼ cup corn
- ¼ cup red onion, diced (about 1/4 of a red onion)
- 1 Tbsp dill relish (or capers)
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Wrap Assembly
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheese of choice)
- 1 wrap, at least 10 inches in size (burrito sized)
- Olive oil, for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare Tuna Mixture: Drain the canned tuna thoroughly. In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna with Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, corn, diced red onion, dill relish, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix everything well to combine all flavors evenly.
- Warm the Wrap: To make the wrap pliable, cover a burrito-sized wrap or tortilla with a damp paper towel and microwave for about 10 to 20 seconds. Lay it flat on a clean surface.
- Assemble the Wrap: Place a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese on the end of the wrap closest to you, leaving about an inch of space on the sides and bottom edge. Spoon the tuna mixture over the cheese evenly.
- Fold the Wrap: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward toward the center. Then fold the bottom edge up over the filling and tuck the edges underneath. Roll the tortilla tightly away from you until fully wrapped.
- Grill the Wrap: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil. Place the wrap seam-side down on the pan. Press gently with a spatula a couple of times while heating for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the wrap and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden and the cheese is melted. Reduce heat to medium-low if the wrap is browning too quickly.
Notes
- Use a burrito-sized wrap for easy folding and a satisfying portion size.
- For smaller portions, divide the tuna mixture and make two smaller wraps with regular-sized tortillas.
- Feel free to substitute mozzarella with your favorite cheese.
- Adjust seasoning with more or less mustard or garlic powder according to taste.
