Q1: Can I use canned tuna in oil instead of water?
A1: Yes, you can use canned tuna in oil if you prefer. Just make sure to drain the oil before mixing it with the other ingredients.
Q2: Can I substitute the whole grain tortillas with a different type of wrap?
A2: Absolutely! Feel free to use any type of wrap you like, such as spinach, tomato, or even gluten-free tortillas, based on your dietary preferences.
Q3: How long can the prepared wraps be stored before serving?
A3: The wraps are best enjoyed immediately after preparation to maintain the freshness of the ingredients. If you need to store them, wrapping them tightly in parchment paper or foil and refrigerating for up to 24 hours is recommended for the best taste and texture.
