02 -
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
03 -
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard or regular mustard
04 -
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1/2 lemon)
05 -
1/4 cup corn kernels
06 -
1/4 cup diced red onion (about 1/4 medium red onion)
07 -
1 tablespoon dill relish or capers
08 -
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
09 -
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
10 -
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or cheese of choice
11 -
1 large burrito-size wrap (10 inches), such as Siete or La Tortilla Factory brand
# How to Make It:
01 -
Place drained tuna, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, corn, diced red onion, dill relish, garlic powder, and black pepper in a medium mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
02 -
Warm the burrito-sized wrap by covering it with a damp paper towel and microwaving for 10 to 20 seconds until pliable.
03 -
Lay the warm wrap on a clean work surface. Sprinkle shredded cheese across the edge closest to you, leaving at least 1 inch of space at the sides and bottom. Spoon the tuna mixture evenly over the cheese.
04 -
Fold the sides of the wrap toward the center. Fold the bottom over the filling and tuck the edges under. Roll the wrap away from you to seal.
05 -
Heat a skillet or grill pan on medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil. Place the wrap seam side down in the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, gently pressing. Flip the wrap and continue cooking for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until golden and cheese is melted. Reduce heat to medium-low if needed.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
If the tuna mixture appears dry, adjust with extra lemon juice. Choose a meltable cheese such as mozzarella or cheddar for optimal texture. Maintain ingredients in the center of the wrap for easy rolling. Utilizing a grill pan enhances browning and produces crisp grill marks.
02 -
For storage, tightly wrap leftovers in foil and refrigerate up to 2 days. To reheat, use a skillet, air fryer, or microwave until heated through.

A balanced lunch containing protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats ensures prolonged satiety and supports overall health.
