Ingredients

Scale

Tuna Mixture

  • 1 can skipjack tuna, 5 oz (or yellowfin), drained
  • 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 ¼ of a red onion)
  • 1 Tbsp dill relish (or capers)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Wrap and Cheese

  • ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheese of choice)
  • 1 large wrap, at least 10 inches in size (burrito sized)
  • Olive oil for grilling (about 1 tsp)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Tuna Mixture: Drain the 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. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
  2. Warm the Wrap: To make the burrito-sized wrap pliable and easy to roll, cover it with a damp paper towel and microwave for 10-20 seconds. Lay the warmed wrap flat on a clean surface.
  3. Assemble the Wrap: Place a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese near the edge of the wrap closest to you, leaving about an inch of space on the sides and bottom. Spoon the tuna mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
  4. Roll the Wrap: Fold the sides of the tortilla toward the center. Then fold the bottom edge over the filling, tucking the edges underneath. Roll the wrap away from you tightly to enclose the filling completely.
  5. Grill the Wrap: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil to lightly coat the surface. Place the wrap seam side down on the skillet. Press gently with a spatula occasionally and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden and the cheese begins to melt. Flip the wrap carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes. Adjust heat to medium-low if the wrap is browning too quickly.
  6. Serve: Remove the wrap from the skillet, slice if desired, and serve warm for a tasty and healthy lunch.

Notes

  • Use a burrito-sized wrap for easier rolling and a more substantial meal.
  • For smaller portions, divide the tuna mixture between two smaller tortillas instead of one large wrap.
  • Substitute mozzarella cheese with any melting cheese like cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Swiss according to preference.
  • Adjust seasoning such as garlic powder and black pepper according to taste.
  • Use Greek yogurt for a healthier alternative to mayonnaise, adding protein and creaminess with less fat.
