What you will need
This recipe uses 6 simple ingredients that you can find at any grocery store:
- 2 cans chunk light tuna in water drained
- 0.5 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 2 whole whole wheat tortillas large
- 2 stalks celery finely diced
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
Step by step instructions
Step 1: Mix the Tuna Filling
In a medium bowl combine drained tuna, Greek yogurt, dijon mustard, and diced celery. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly coated and the yogurt is fully incorporated.
Step 2: Season the Mixture
Add salt, black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice to the tuna mixture. Stir again and taste to adjust seasoning to your preference before assembling.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay each whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Layer baby spinach leaves across the center of each tortilla. Spoon half of the tuna mixture onto each bed of spinach.
Step 4: Wrap and Serve
Fold in the sides of the tortilla then roll tightly from the bottom up to form a secure wrap. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap in foil for meal prep storage.
