This Tuna Power Wrap is a quick and healthy lunch and is protein-packed, giving you the energy you need to get through your day!

I first had a similar wrap to this from the premade meals section at Trader Joe's. You know the spot-- with all the delicious salads and sandwiches that are great for easy lunches and snacks! As much as I love that section, I knew I could create this wrap at home, at a better price, and without the need for single-use plastic.
So what makes this wrap a "power" wrap?
Well, it has a great mix of protein, greens, and carbs! All of these together help increase satiety and give you energy.
Tuna is a great source of protein. In fact, it is an almost pure protein food! One can of Starkist tuna contains 16 grams of protein. Here I mixed it with mayo, but you can also use greek yogurt like in this Healthy Greek Yogurt Tuna Salad.
To up the protein even more, I added sliced hardboiled egg. Each wrap has one hardboiled egg, about 6 grams of protein.
Leafy greens are packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, but are low in calories. I used Spring Mix. These baby lettuces are tender and versatile. They go as a great compliment to the tuna.
And finally-- the wrap. Carbs are not the enemy. Your body needs them to have energy. There are definitely some carbs that are better than others. A thin wrap, with whole ingredients like this one from Tortilla Fresca, is a great option. We buy ours at Costco.

What a great idea for a healthy lunch! I try to always have one of those greens mixes on hand. I didn’t know they made uncooked organic tortillas! Do they taste different than the others they sell “ cooked”? Do you buy in coolers at Costco? Thanks for sharing!
this is. welcome change from chicken wraps even if there good are the tortas flour or corn I would use flour or maybe try flavor torts too sounds delicious
They are flour! A flavored one would be great too, maybe spinach or red pepper.
They taste even better! Michael doesn't want to buy anything else now. And I like that they don't have all of the unnecessary ingredients. They are in the coolers, by the cheeses!
Looks like a great idea for lunch! Love wraps! Have you ever tried Flatout brand of wraps(Tortillas) some flavors are better than others, lower carbs. They have a thin pizza crust that i use to make a skinny tuna melt that is yummy!
I have not! Where do you buy them?
i have bought them at jewel in the past by the deli. I'm sure alot of stores carry them.
