Step 1
Start by mixing the tuna with mayonnaise, pickle relish, chopped onion, celery, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of garlic salt in a bowl until everything is well combined. Lay a fresh lettuce leaf on each tortilla to add a nice crunch. Then, spoon a line of the tuna mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold the two sides of the tortilla over the filling so they overlap a bit. Finally, roll up one of the open ends tightly, just like you would with a burrito, to keep everything together. Enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This dish is quick, satisfying, and packed with protein. It combines the savory flavor of tuna with the soft, warm texture of a tortilla, making it perfect for a light lunch or snack. It’s easy to customize with your favorite ingredients.
How to serve
Serve with a side of fresh salad or crunchy vegetable sticks for a balanced meal. A dollop of sour cream or a squeeze of lime can brighten the flavors. It also pairs nicely with a cold glass of iced tea or lemonade.
Storage & leftovers
If you have leftovers, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. Keep refrigerated and consume within one day for the best taste and freshness. Avoid freezing, as the tortilla may become soggy upon thawing.
