Quick Mediterranean Tuna Wrap Ready in 10 Minutes
No cooking, no stress — a real dinner in 10 minutes flat.
It's late, you're tired, and you don't want to turn on the stove. This Mediterranean tuna wrap is exactly the recipe for that moment. You're pulling from pantry staples — canned tuna, olives, feta — and adding whatever fresh stuff you have on hand. It comes together in about 10 minutes with zero heat required. The flavors are bright and satisfying enough to feel like an actual dinner, not a sad desk lunch. Expect something briny, creamy, and crunchy all at once. It's the kind of meal that makes you wonder why you ever ordered delivery.
Ingredients
- 2 unit large flour tortillas — 10-inch size works best
- 2 unit cans (5 oz each) tuna in olive oil — drained well
- 0.25 cup kalamata olives — pitted and roughly chopped
- 0.33 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 0.5 unit English cucumber — thinly sliced or diced
- 0.5 unit cup cherry tomatoes — halved
- 0.25 unit red onion — thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp hummus — store-bought is fine
- 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 tsp dried oregano
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes — optional, for heat
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Method
- 1 Drain the tuna well and add it to a medium bowl. Break it up gently with a fork.
- 2 Add the lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the tuna. Stir to combine.
- 3 Fold in the chopped kalamata olives and crumbled feta. Taste and adjust seasoning — it should be bright and a little briny.
- 4 In a small bowl, stir together the hummus and Greek yogurt until smooth. This is your wrap spread.
- 5 Lay the tortillas flat. Spread half the hummus-yogurt mixture across the center of each tortilla, leaving about an inch border.
- 6 Divide the tuna mixture between the two tortillas, placing it in a line down the center.
- 7 Top each with sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
- 8 Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up. Slice in half on the diagonal and serve immediately.
Variations
- Vegetarian Swap — Replace the tuna with a drained and rinsed can of chickpeas, roughly mashed with a fork. Season the same way — it's just as satisfying and still very much Mediterranean.
- Even Faster Version — Skip the red onion and tomatoes and just use a few spoonfuls of store-bought Greek salad from the deli section. Assembly drops to under 5 minutes.
- Dairy-Free — Omit the feta and replace the Greek yogurt with extra hummus. You'll lose a little creaminess but it's still delicious — add a few extra olives to compensate for the brininess.
Notes
Tuna packed in olive oil has better flavor and texture here than water-packed, but water-packed works fine — just drain it extra well and add a little more olive oil to the mix. If your tortillas are stiff and prone to cracking, warm them for 15 seconds in the microwave before assembling. Don't skip the hummus-yogurt spread — it acts as a moisture barrier so the wrap doesn't get soggy.
Equipment that helps
- Medium mixing bowl — Gives you enough room to fold the tuna mixture without everything spilling over the sides.
