  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard adds an unforgettable tang
  • ¼ cup diced crunchy celery

To Assemble the Wraps:

  • 2 medium flour tortillas you can use large lettuce leaves as a lighter option
  • ¼ cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 small ripe tomato thinly sliced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Tuna Salad

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, finely diced onion, and crunchy celery. Stir in the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Mix until everything is well combined. Taste and add salt and pepper as necessary. This step sets the flavor foundation for your wraps, so adjust spices to your liking.

Step 2: Assemble the Wraps

  • Lay the tortillas on a flat surface. Spread a layer of fresh spinach leaves onto each wrap, followed by your creamy tuna mix. Add thin slices of tomato on top. The vibrant colors of the ingredients will have you salivating already.

Step 3: Roll the Wraps

  • Starting from one end, roll up each tortilla tightly to keep all that delicious filling secure. If you’re concerned about spillage, you could consider wrapping them in parchment paper for a tidy presentation.

Notes

  • Choose Quality Tuna: Opt for wild-caught tuna whenever possible. The flavor and texture are incomparable to lower-quality options.
  • Get Creative with Fillings: Feel free to toss in additional vegetables or garnishes like shredded carrots or avocado slices.
  • Make it Spicy or Mild: Adjust how much sriracha you use based on who you’re serving. Go easy on the kids and turn up the heat for the adults.
  • Let It Chill: For a refreshing twist, let the tuna mixture sit in the fridge for 30 minutes before assembling. The flavors meld together beautifully.
  • Use Whole Wheat Tortillas: For a healthier wrap, swap out regular tortillas for whole wheat ones to increase fiber intake.
