Ingredients

Scale

Tuna Mixture

  • 1 can skipjack tuna, 5 oz (or yellowfin tuna)
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
  • ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard (or regular mustard)
  • ½ lemon, juice of (about 1 tablespoon)
  • ¼ cup corn
  • ¼ cup red onion, diced (about ¼ of a red onion)
  • 1 tablespoon dill relish or capers
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Assembly

  • ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheese of choice)
  • 1 large wrap, at least 10 inches in size (burrito-sized), such as Siete or La Tortilla Factory brand

Instructions

  1. Prepare Tuna Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the canned tuna, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and fresh lemon juice. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly incorporated, giving a creamy yet tangy base.
  2. Add Vegetables and Seasoning: Stir in the corn, diced red onion, dill relish (or capers), garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to distribute flavors evenly throughout the tuna mixture.
  3. Assemble Wrap: Lay the large 10-inch wrap flat on a clean surface. Spread the prepared tuna mixture evenly over the center of the wrap, leaving some space around the edges.
  4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the tuna mixture. This will melt slightly when the wrap is warmed, adding a delicious gooey texture.
  5. Warm and Melt Cheese: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Fold the wrap by folding in the sides and then rolling it tightly from one end to the other. Place the wrap seam-side down onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until the cheese melts and the wrap is golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve: Remove from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve warm for a tasty and healthy tuna melt experience on the go.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise to reduce fat and calories while keeping creaminess.
  • Dijon mustard can be substituted with regular mustard for a milder flavor.
  • Adding lemon juice brightens the tuna mix and balances flavors.
  • Dill relish or capers add a tangy, briny contrast; adjust quantity to taste.
  • Use a sturdy wrap to hold the filling without tearing during cooking.
  • Heating the wrap on a skillet makes the cheese melt perfectly and adds a crispy texture.
  • Optional: add fresh greens like spinach or arugula inside the wrap for extra nutrients.
