Description

A warm, cheesy wrap filled with comforting tuna and flavorful ingredients, perfect for fall.


Ingredients

  • 2 (5 oz) cans solid tuna in water, drained
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup celery, finely diced
  • 1 tbsp capers, chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas for a variation)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar or a melty cheese blend
  • 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens
  • 1 tbsp butter or olive oil (for toasting)


Instructions

  1. Prep the tuna filling: In a medium bowl, combine drained tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon, chopped onion, diced celery, capers (if using), smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined but slightly chunky for texture.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay a tortilla flat and spoon about 1/4 of the tuna mixture down the center. Top with a handful of shredded cheese and a few spinach leaves. Fold in the sides and roll tightly.
  3. Toast for meltiness: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little butter or oil. Place the seam side down and cook until golden and crisp, about 2–3 minutes per side.
  4. Rest and slice: Let the wrap rest for a minute to settle the filling, then slice in half diagonally. Serve warm.

Notes

For variations, use gluten-free wraps, add jalapeños for heat, or try different cheeses like Gouda or provolone.
