This wrap has everything creamy filling, a little kick from mustard, crunchy sweetcorn, and melty cheddar. I like to toast it in a pan for that perfect golden outside. Let’s make lunch a little more exciting today!

Method (Detailed Steps)

Prepare the Tuna Mix

First, open your can of tuna and drain out all the water. This helps keep the filling from getting soggy. Place the tuna in a mixing bowl. Then, add 2 tablespoons of light cream cheese to make it creamy. Mix in 1 teaspoon of garlic (you can use fresh minced garlic or garlic powder) and 1 teaspoon of mustard. If you enjoy a spicier flavor, you can use 2 teaspoons instead. Next, add 2 tablespoons of sweetcorn and about 15g of grated Cheddar cheese. Using a spoon or fork, stir everything together until all the ingredients are well combined and smooth. The mixture should be spreadable but not runny.

Assemble the Wrap

Lay your wholemeal wrap flat on a clean surface like a plate or cutting board. Spoon the tuna mixture into the center of the wrap and spread it out a bit but not all the way to the edges. Leave some space to help with folding. On top of the tuna mix, place a small handful of fresh spinach leaves. This adds a nice crunch and extra nutrients. Now, it’s time to fold. Tuck in the sides first, then roll the wrap tightly from the bottom up so it forms a sealed parcel or burrito shape.

Toast the Wrap

Heat a frying pan or skillet over medium heat don’t go too high or the wrap might burn. Once the pan is hot, place your wrap seam-side down. This helps hold it together while it toasts. Cook it for about 2 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula. Then flip it over carefully and toast the other side for another 2 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and the cheese inside has started to melt. The wrap should feel warm and slightly crispy on the outside.

Serve and Enjoy

Once it’s done, remove the wrap from the pan and let it cool for a minute. You can slice it in half to show off the creamy filling or keep it whole if you’re on the go. Now it’s ready to enjoy fresh, cheesy, and packed with flavor!
