A fresh, protein-rich wrap filled with tuna, white beans, and crisp vegetables dressed with a zesty blend.

# Required Ingredients:

→ Protein & Beans

01 - 1 can (5 oz) tuna in water, drained
02 - 1 cup canned white beans (cannellini or navy beans), rinsed and drained

→ Vegetables

03 - 1/2 cup cucumber, diced
04 - 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
05 - 1/4 small red onion, finely chopped
06 - 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens

→ Dressing

07 - 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
08 - 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
09 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
10 - 1 small garlic clove, minced
11 - 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
12 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

→ Wraps

13 - 2 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas (8-10 inch diameter)

# Preparation Steps:

01 - In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna and white beans. Lightly mash with a fork to achieve a chunky texture.
02 - Add diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion to the tuna and bean mixture. Toss gently to combine all vegetables evenly.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined.
04 - Pour the prepared dressing over the tuna and bean salad. Stir until all components are evenly coated and the flavors are well distributed.
05 - Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Arrange baby spinach or mixed greens down the center of each tortilla.
06 - Spoon the dressed tuna and white bean salad evenly over the greens in each tortilla, distributing the filling to cover the entire length.
07 - Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll up tightly to form compact wraps. Slice in half diagonally if desired for presentation.
08 - Serve immediately while fresh, or wrap in parchment paper for convenient on-the-go consumption.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It tastes nothing like boring office-lunch energy because the lemon and mustard dressing do all the heavy lifting without a drop of mayo.
  • You can honestly make this while your coffee is still hot, which means no excuses on busy mornings.
  • The protein combo of tuna and white beans keeps you full way longer than you'd expect from something this light.
02 -
  • If you don't drain your tuna thoroughly, your wrap becomes a soggy disappointment within minutes, so squeeze it like you mean it.
  • The greens underneath the filling act as a barrier that keeps the tortilla from getting wet, which is honestly the secret to wraps that hold up.
03 -
  • Let your dressing sit for five minutes before tossing so the flavors meld together and become something greater than their parts.
  • If you're eating these later, pack the greens separately and add them right before rolling to keep everything crisp and prevent sogginess.
