Equipment

1 Cast iron pan or Large skillet

Ingredients

For the tuna dip

3 oz canned tuna , in water or oil
1 oz cream cheese
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoon red onion , finely diced
2 tablespoon parsley , finely chopped
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
⅛ teaspoon salt

For the wrap

2 tortilla wraps
¼ cup marinated sun-dried tomatoes
¼ cup marinated artichoke hearts
handful of fresh spinach
2 slices cheese mozzarella, cheddar, or swiss

Instructions

For the tuna

First, open and drain the canned tuna completely.
In a medium-size bowl, gently mix the tuna, cream cheese, sour cream, red onion, parsley, red pepper flakes, and salt.

To assemble the tuna melt wrap

Heat a cast iron pan or a well-greased skillet on medium-low heat.
Place a tortilla onto the heated pan and allow to warm and soften on one side.
Flip the tortilla, and add half of the tuna mixture. Top with half of the sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, spinach, and cheese.
Fold it into thirds by folding the bottom of the tortilla in over the filling, then fold one side, then the other side to close it completely. Feel free to place a few pieces of cheese in between the tortilla to seal it closed.
Allow to cook for a couple of minutes of each side.
Flip and warm through completely until the tortilla has crisped and the cheese is melted.
Plate and serve warm.

Notes

STORAGE

Store the wrap disassembled if possible. For storing the tuna melt wrap, wait until completely cooled. Then, place them in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

HOW TO REHEAT

Re-heat the wraps in the air fryer on 350 degrees F for just a couple minutes, or until warmed through.
