How do I keep a tuna wrap from getting soggy?

Place lettuce between the tortilla and the tuna — it acts as a moisture barrier. Keep tomato slices minimal or add them just before eating.

Can I make tuna wraps ahead of time?

Make the filling ahead and store for 2-3 days. Assemble the wrap right before eating for the best texture.

What can I add to a tuna wrap?

Sliced cucumber, avocado, red onion, sprouts, or spinach all make great additions. A drizzle of hot sauce adds a nice kick.
