Chef's Note

For a make-ahead lunch, keep the tuna-chickpea mixture separate from the tortillas and assemble just before eating to prevent soggy wraps. You can also serve this mixture over a bed of greens for a gluten-free option!

Ingredients
  • 2 cans (5 oz each), drained canned tuna in water

  • 1 can (15 oz), drained and rinsed canned chickpeas

  • 1 medium, diced red bell pepper

  • 1/2 medium, diced cucumber

  • 1/4 cup, finely diced red onion

  • 1/4 cup, chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 medium lemon

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon honey

  • 1 clove, minced garlic

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 4 large (10-inch) whole wheat tortillas

  • 2 cups mixed salad greens

Instructions
  • 1

    In a small bowl, make the dressing by combining the juice from 1 medium lemon (about 3 tablespoons), 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Whisk until well combined and set aside.

  • 2

    In a large bowl, combine 2 drained cans of tuna, breaking up any large chunks with a fork.

  • 3

    Add 1 can of drained and rinsed chickpeas to the bowl and lightly mash about half of them with a fork or potato masher, leaving some whole for texture.

  • 4

    Add 1 diced red bell pepper, 1/2 diced cucumber, 1/4 cup finely diced red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley to the tuna and chickpea mixture.

  • 5

    Pour the prepared dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss to combine all ingredients. Let the salad rest for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  • 6

    Warm the 4 whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until slightly pliable.

  • 7

    To assemble each wrap, place 1/2 cup of mixed salad greens in the center of a warm tortilla, then top with about 3/4 cup of the tuna-chickpea mixture.

  • 8

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll up from the bottom to create a wrap. Cut in half diagonally if desired.

  • 9

    Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.
