Ingredients for 2 servings

2 servings

Check off ingredients as you go.

Contains fish, gluten, milk. Check the labels on packaged ingredients:

  • tortillas. Wheat tortillas often contain soya and sometimes milk; check the label.
  • roasted red peppers from a jar. Jarred peppers are packed in brine and can contain sulphites; check the label.

Cooking steps

  1. Mash the beans with the yoghurt and parsley until spreadable but not smooth.

  2. Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry pan, which makes them fold without cracking.

  3. Spread the bean mixture over each one, leaving a clear border, and add the tuna and sliced peppers.

  4. Fold in the sides, roll tightly and cut each wrap in half.

The useful detail

Dry the peppers before filling to prevent a soggy wrap. Jarred peppers hold a surprising amount of brine, and it runs straight into the bread.

Make it work for you

One serving is One wrap. You can switch to a smaller portion in the ingredients above; it is three quarters of this, and it contains correspondingly less energy and protein. It is an option, not a goal.

  • Tinned salmon or mackerel

    Richer and oilier than tuna in water.

    Per serving: about 160 kcal more, about 4 g more protein, about 15 g more fat.

  • Chickpeas instead of white beans

    Nuttier, and they mash to a coarser spread.

    Per serving: about 20 kcal more, about the same protein, about 2 g more fat.

  • Peppers you roast yourself

    About 160 g raw, roasted and peeled. No brine, and the sodium becomes calculable.

    Per serving: about the same energy, about the same protein, about the same fat.

Estimated nutrition

Per standard serving, calculated from the ingredients above. Nutrition changes with substitutions, brands and how much oil stays in the pan.

A cold lunch with protein from both the tuna and the beans. Sodium is not calculated, because the jarred peppers' brine is not in their record.

Show calculation notes

Each ingredient’s weight is multiplied by its USDA FoodData Central values per 100 g. The whole recipe is added up and divided by 2. Raw weights are used for meat, fish and vegetables; beans and lentils are drained weights. All of the oil is counted as eaten. Added salt is not included; sodium from stock, bread, cheese and tinned food is.

Per serving the energy is rounded to the nearest 5 kcal, grams to the nearest whole gram and sodium to the nearest 10 mg. sodium could not be calculated, because one ingredient’s record does not cover it; the row above says which. Calculation method 1.0, September 2026. How the calculation works.

Storage and reheating

In the fridge
Keep the bean spread and the tuna covered in the fridge for up to 2 days and roll the wraps fresh. A rolled wrap goes soft within hours.
Reheating
Eaten cold.

Checked against US Food and Drug Administration, Refrigerator and Freezer Storage Chart, USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service, Leftovers and Food Safety, FoodSafety.gov, Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures and FoodSafety.gov, Cold Food Storage Chart. UK guidance from the Food Standards Agency is shorter, at two days for most leftovers.
