Tuna Wraps With A Kick

I know what you’re thinking — not another tuna salad recipe!! Well, this is no ordinary tuna wrap recipe – it is one with a kick. Just like my Honey likes it. It will tingle your tongue but it is oh so very good. Now the ingredients I am showing are for the regular tuna salad wrap but I will give the instructions for the spicy one. We were going to share our meal with someone who doesn’t care for spicy foods so we made it with the pickle relish. Normally we would add diced jalapeno slices instead of the relish.

Ingredients for the spicy tuna wrap

Also, we purchase jalapeno mustard and hot sauce by the gallon. When we restock I will post a picture of the hot sauce and mustard and where you can purchase. It is fantastic!! We use the medium (8 inches) soft flour tortillas for the wrap. First, you lay out your flour tortilla and you put about two heaping tablespoons of filling down the center:

Next step is to bring the bottom portion halfway :

Second step for wrapping the spicy tuna filling

Bring both left and right ends in together and hold:

Step three to wrapping the spicy tuna in the flour tortilla

Start rolling from the bottom up until it is in a bundle. You have just made the perfect wrap. If you are going to pack it for a lunch to brown bag it, you would follow the same procedure with your plastic wrap.

If you are planning on eating it right away, I would slice it on the diagonal and serve with your favorite crudités. This is certainly a healthy alternative to eating lots of cheese (which I love) and heavily processed meats.
