Tuna Melt Quesadillas By Kelly Miller • January5,2012 • Updated February 3, 2022 • 6 Comments 1.2K 18 Jump to Recipe Tuna Melt Quesadillas recipe made with chunk light tuna, mayo, vinegar, garlic, onion, sliced tomato, cheddar cheese, and flour tortillas. Such a great lunch idea! I went to make Grilled Cheeseburger Wraps last week and I realized I was completely out of ground beef! Not surprising to me, though. I rarely buy ground beef anymore because the prices are outrageous right now! I came up with this on the fly and they turned out fabulous. How to make this recipe: Heat griddle over medium heat. Meanwhile, mix tuna, mayo, vinegar, garlic powder, and minced onion in bowl. Spread half of tuna over one tortilla. Top with tomato slices. Sprinkle tomato slices generously with cheddar. Top with another tortilla. Repeat steps to make 2nd quesadilla (you can easily halve the recipe if needed). Place quesadillas on griddle for about 4 minutes. Flip and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes. Slice and serve!
