6-Ingredient Crisp Tuna Caesar Wrap

If you’re a huge Caesar salad fan like me, you’re gonna love this wrap! This Crisp Tuna Caesar Wrap takes all the rich, fresh, and savory flavors of your favorite salad and turns it into the perfect handheld lunch.

Think: classic Caesar salad with chunks of tuna all rolled up into a soft tortilla for a harmony of flavors and textures that can’t be beat. Plus, it’s easy to whip up with just 6 ingredients required. Not going to lie, this is my hyper fixation meal lately and I cannot get enough!

Rooted in my commitment to sustainability, I try to source ingredients responsibly when I can.

The most sustainable way to eat canned tuna is by making sure it is skipjack or yellowfin tuna. Most tuna labeled as “light” is skipjack or yellowfin, as opposed to “white” tuna which is usually albacore.

Green tip:  Opt for “light” tuna to reduce your environmental impact as this typically indicates the tuna is skipjack or yellowfin, which is more sustainable than albacore.

Tuna Caesar Salad Wrap Tips and Tricks

Prep Your Lettuce and Tuna

Unless you’re using pre-chopped, pre-washed Romaine, you’ll want to chop, rinse, and dry your lettuce. A salad spinner is really useful here! You can chop then rinse the lettuce in the basket, and then spin it to dry it.

If you don’t have a salad spinner, rinse your lettuce first, then dab it dry with a clean kitchen towel. From there, you can roughly chop it.

As for the tuna, simply drain the liquid from the can and add it to a bowl with about 2-3 tablespoons of Caesar dressing — just enough to give it some moisture and flavor. Then, just kinda mash it with a fork to combine.

Toss Most of Your Fillings Together

To a large bowl, add your lettuce, prepped tuna, Parmesan cheese, and dressing and toss to coat. Leave the croutons out for now.

By not tossing your croutons with the dressing, you’ll keep them extra crunchy which is crucial to the texture in this delicious lunch wrap.

How to Roll Your Caesar Wrap with Tuna

Now, add the filling to your wraps and throw in some croutons. I find I have the most success for a tightly rolled wrap when I fold the sides over the fillings first.

Then, you can fold the side closest to you over the fillings and roll away from you until you’re left with a tight and tidy wrap.

How to Properly Store Leftover Ceasar Wrap

Leftovers of this lunch wrap recipe will last up to five days in an airtight container. This does mean that you can safely make this ahead of time and bring with you to eat for lunch, etc.

However, I want to be completely honest in saying that this wrap is much better served fresh. That’s because the longer it sits, the more likely the croutons are to lose their crunch and the wrap is to get soggy.

If you’d like to prep this, you can toss the lettuce, tuna, Parmesan, and dressing together, and have the croutons and wrap separate and just add everything together and wrap it up before enjoying.
