Description

A delightful twist on the classic tuna melt, wrapped in a warm tortilla with creamy, tangy filling and melted cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can of tuna, drained
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup diced celery
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 whole wheat wrap or tortilla
  • 1 slice of cheese (cheddar or Swiss)
  • Lettuce or spinach (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, diced celery, and diced red onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ensure they’re well combined and creamy—set aside.
  2. Prep the Wrap: Lay the whole wheat wrap on a flat surface. Spoon the tuna mixture into the center of the wrap, making sure not to overfill.
  3. Add Cheese and Greens: Top with a slice of cheese, and layer on the lettuce or spinach if desired.
  4. Fold It Up: Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a neat parcel.
  5. Cook the Wrap: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the wrap seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, using a spatula to press down gently until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  6. Serve: Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm.

Notes

Keep an eye on the heat; if your skillet is too hot, the wrap might brown too quickly without melting the cheese.
