And don’t skip the basil! Basil has a unique, slightly sweet taste that can enhance the flavors of the other ingredients in our recipe. Though it might seem like a simple addition, you will certainly notice the bright and fresh taste of it in your wrap.

What to Pair With Your Tasty Tuna Wrap

When it comes to wraps, there are endless possibilities. But when you’ve got a taste for tuna, the options might seem a little more limited. Here are some delicious sides that will complement your tuna wrap and leave you feeling satisfied.

For a light and refreshing option, try pairing your wrap with a simple salad. Just top some greens with your favorite veggies and a drizzle of dressing. This combo will give you a satisfying crunch in every bite.

If you’re looking for something heartier, a mix of roasted potatoes and veggies makes an excellent side dish for a tuna wrap. Season them with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs, then roast in the oven until they’re nice and crispy.

Some people like homemade potato chips or even a basket of sweet potato French fries. For us, we opted to keep it light by adding carrots and sugar snap peas on the side, but you could pair it with what you like most.

Make Plenty of Wraps Ahead of Time to Grab and Go

Making this tasty tuna wrap ahead of time is super easy and convenient. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Start with a good, quality wrap. You’ll want one that’s strong enough to hold up to being wrapped tightly and stored in the fridge.
  2. Spread on your favorite tuna filling. Make sure to leave a little bit of room at the edges so that everything stays contained when you roll it up.
  3. Roll it up tightly, then wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
  4. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days. When you’re ready to eat, just unwrap and enjoy!

If you’re nervous about the wrap getting soggy, you could keep the tuna mix separate in a bowl and scoop out what you want when you’re ready to eat.

We recommend keeping a container of baby carrots and sugar snap peas at the ready to pair with it for a quick lunch that comes together in moments.
