Ingredients

Main Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Prepare Tuna Mixture: Drain the tuna thoroughly. In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna with Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, corn, diced red onion, dill relish, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix everything well until fully incorporated.
  2. Soften Wrap: To make the wrap pliable and easy to fold, cover the burrito-sized wrap with a damp paper towel and microwave it for 10-20 seconds. Then, lay it flat on a clean work surface.
  3. Assemble Wrap: Spread 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 prepared tuna mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
  4. Fold Wrap: Fold the sides of the tortilla toward the center. Next, fold the bottom edge up and tuck the edges under the filling. Roll the wrap tightly away from you to enclose the filling completely.
  5. Grill 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 hot pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, pressing gently a few times to help the cheese melt and to toast the wrap evenly. Flip the wrap and heat for another 2-3 minutes. If it cooks too quickly or starts to burn, reduce the heat to medium-low.
  6. Serve: Once the wrap is golden brown and heated through with melted cheese, remove from the pan. Slice if desired and enjoy your healthy tuna melt wrap!

Notes

  • Use a burrito-sized wrap to ensure enough room for all the filling and easy wrapping.
  • If preferred, split the tuna mixture between two smaller tortillas for smaller wraps.
  • Substitute mozzarella cheese with your favorite cheese to customize flavor.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste by adding salt or extra pepper if desired.
  • For a lower-fat version, opt for low-fat Greek yogurt and reduced-fat cheese.
