Instructions
Prepare the Tuna Mixture
- Drain the cans of tuna well.
- Combine the drained tuna with freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, pepper, seeded mustard, diced red bell pepper, chopped kalamata olives, chopped parsley, and olive oil.
- Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
Assemble the Wraps
- Lightly warm the wraps or tortillas on a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds.
- Lay the wrap flat, place the tuna mixture down the center, and top it with a generous handful of arugula or lettuce.
- Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll it tightly from one end to the other, keeping the ingredients securely inside.
Serve
- Cut the wrap in half for easier handling and a neat presentation. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.
Notes
- Drain the Tuna Well: To avoid a soggy wrap, make sure to drain the tuna thoroughly before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- Use Fresh Lemon Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a bright, zesty flavor that enhances the taste of the tuna and vegetables.
- Customize Your Wrap: Feel free to add other veggies like red onion, cucumber, marinated artichoke hearts, avocado, or cherry tomatoes for extra crunch and flavor. You can also swap out the arugula for spinach or romaine lettuce.
- Prep Ahead: The tuna mixture can be made up to four days in advance and stored in the fridge. Assemble the wraps just before serving for the best texture.
- Warm Up the Wraps: Lightly warm the wraps or tortillas before assembling to make them more pliable and less likely to tear when rolling. This also enhances their flavor and texture.
- Wrap It Right: To keep the wraps from unraveling, roll them tightly and slice them in half on a diagonal for a more appealing presentation.
- Wrap options: You can use lavash or no yeast flatbread for the wraps.
- Vegetable substitutions: Use lettuce or spinach instead of arugula if desired. You can also add other vegetables such as red onion, cucumbers or marinated artichoke hearts.
