Looking to mix up your lunch routine? You’ve come to the right place! This salmon wrap comes together quickly and is loaded with perfectly cooked salmon, fresh veggies and a creamy honey mustard yogurt sauce. Such a delicious lunch idea!
It’s no surprise that I love a good handheld meal. Some of my go-to’s are curried chicken salad sandwiches, egg salad and tuna salad wraps.
Today, though, it’s all about salmon: salmon wraps, to be exact!
These seafood wraps are made with fresh salmon fillets and filled with crunchy veggies and a creamy honey mustard sauce.
They’re a great way to mix up the ol’ lunch routine and sure to be a favourite!
Why We Love Salmon Wraps
- They take about 20 minutes to prepare.
- These wraps are such a yummy way to mix up lunch.
- They can be customized to taste with veggies.
- Leftover salmon? They’re a great way to use that.
- Of course, they taste so delicious!
How To Make It
Full details on how to make these salmon wraps are in the recipe card below, but here are the basics:
- Place the salmon fillets on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Then, in a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey and hot sauce and brush over the salmon fillets. Fold the narrow end of each salmon fillet underneath (so they cook evenly), then bake until the fillets are cooked through.
- In another small bowl or dish, whisk together the creamy yogurt sauce and spread some onto each tortilla.
- For each tortilla, layer on some baby spinach, bell pepper, sliced red onion, thinly sliced carrot and chunks of cooked salmon.
- Fold into a wrap. Time to enjoy!
Creamy Honey Mustard Yogurt Sauce
On its own, this yogurt sauce is really good, but paired with salmon? Wicked!
If you don’t have chives on hand, sub with some green onion. If you want things a little richer, feel free to sub in some mayo for the yogurt.
Don’t want to use this sauce? No worries! Use your favourite store-bought sauce or dressing instead.
Can I Just Use Leftover Salmon Instead?
Of course! I’m all for reducing food waste so if you have leftover salmon in your fridge from another meal, go for it.
Can I Make This a Lower Carb Wrap?
Absolutely!
Instead of regular tortillas, use a low-carb variety.
Alternatively, you can serve the salmon wrap ingredients on lettuce leaves instead. Boston lettuce works great here!
Tips and Variations
- The salmon fillets that were used had the skin attached (underneath). Just remove the skin after the salmon has been cooked.
- No salt was added to the salmon (as soy sauce has salt), but you can add to taste should you wish.
- Mix things up with your favourite veggies. Baby arugula, lettuce, avocado and thinly sliced cucumber are other great options for these seafood wraps.
- If you don’t want to use the yogurt sauce, use a store-bought dressing, mustard or whatever sauce you enjoy best.
And if you are looking for more delicious handheld bites, you can find lots of sandwiches, quesadillas and more here.

Salmon Wrap With Creamy Honey Mustard Sauce
Ingredients
Salmon
- 2 (5-ounce) salmon fillets (boneless)
- 1 tablespoon less sodium soy sauce
- ½ tablespoon honey
- ½ tablespoon hot sauce, like Sriracha hot sauce
Creamy Honey Mustard Yogurt Sauce
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons whole grain mustard
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Other Wrap Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas, each about 9.5 to 10 inches in diameter
- 2 handfuls baby spinach, about 2 loosely packed cups
- 1 bell pepper, cut into thin strips
- ¼ small red onion, peeled and thinly sliced (less if you want less onion)
- 2 carrots, peeled and julienned (cut into thin strips)
Instructions
Salmon
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place salmon fillets, skin side down, onto a parchment paper-lined sheet pan.
- Whisk together soy sauce, honey and hot sauce in a small bowl.
- Brush soy sauce mixture over fillets. Tuck narrow end of each fillet underneath (so salmon cooks evenly). Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through, opaque, and flakes easily with a fork (insert the tines of a fork into the thickest part of the fish at an angle and twist gently; it should flake easily).Note: If your salmon fillets has the skin attached, you can remove and discard before using in the wraps.
Creamy Honey Mustard Yogurt Sauce
- Whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl until combined.
Assemble the Wraps
- Spread the creamy honey mustard yogurt sauce onto one half of each tortilla. Top with spinach, bell pepper, onion and carrot. Break salmon up into chunks and distribute over top of veggies.
- To fold the wraps: For each one, bring the bottom of the tortilla up over the ingredients (covering them) and then gently pull it back towards you to tighten. Fold in each side, then begin to tightly roll the wrap (keeping everything tucked in as you roll, so it's compact). I like to fold wraps burrito-style. Alternatively, you can fold the wrap your favourite way. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- The salmon fillets that were used had the skin attached (underneath). Just remove the skin after the salmon has been cooked.
- If you don’t want to use the yogurt sauce, you can use a store-bought dressing, mustard or whatever sauce you enjoy best.

David @ Spiced says
This wrap looks amazing, Dawn! For some reason, we don’t make wraps nearly as often as we should. I do enjoy salmon, but I’ve never used it in a burrito/wrap like this. I love the flavors you’ve got here, and I’m thinking I need to make a bunch of salmon for easy weekday lunches now!
Dawn - Girl Heart Food says
Thank you David! They happen quite regularly in our home! Hope you try this one out soon.
