- 2 tbsp mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for a lighter option
- 1 tbsp chopped gherkins or capers
- 1 tbsp sundried tomatoes drained, finely chopped

- ½ cup fresh spinach or arugula for a peppery kick
- ¼ bell pepper thinly sliced (any color works)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix tuna, mayo, gherkins, sundried tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat. Add spinach, tuna mixture, bell peppers, and shredded cheese in the center.
- Fold the Wrap: Fold the top and bottom slightly over the filling, then fold the left side over the center and roll tightly.
- Grill the Wrap: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, lightly brush with oil, and place the wrap seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Serve & Enjoy: Let it rest for a minute before slicing in half. Serve warm with your favorite sides like salad or soup!
Notes
- Cheese Options: Try cheddar, gouda, Swiss, or pepper jack for different flavors.
- Make-Ahead Tip: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Low-Carb Alternative: Swap the tortilla for lettuce wraps for a lighter version.
- Spicy Kick: Add chili flakes, sriracha, or jalapeños to the filling for extra heat.
