Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp prepared horseradish
- 2 stalks green onion (finely chopped)
- 1 stalk celery (finely diced)
- 1 tbsp pickle relish
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and prepared horseradish. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the chopped green onion, diced celery, and pickle relish to the tuna mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on your work surface. If using, place a lettuce leaf on the tortilla to add a fresh crunch.
Spread an even layer of the tuna salad mixture over the tortilla, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges for easy rolling.
Starting at one end, tightly roll the tortilla into a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and tuna salad mixture.
Using a sharp knife, trim off the edges of each roll, then slice the roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving plate. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving for the flavors to meld.
