Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider mixing in some diced bell peppers or jalapeños into the tuna mixture. If you're looking for a lighter option, swap out the cream of celery soup for a homemade béchamel or a lighter cream soup. You can also use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangy twist. These roll-ups are similar to those found in American recipes, making them a versatile dish.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these Tuna Tortilla Roll-Ups with a fresh side salad or crispy tortilla chips for a complete meal. They pair beautifully with a zesty salsa or guacamole on the side. For an added touch, consider serving with a dollop of sour cream or a side of Fiesta Shrimp Dip for a delightful contrast.
