Veggie Wrap With Hummus (Print View)

Crisp vegetables and creamy hummus rolled in whole wheat tortillas for a fresh Mediterranean lunch ready in minutes.

# What You Need:

→ Wraps

01 - 4 large whole wheat tortilla wraps

→ Vegetables

02 - 1 cup shredded carrots
03 - 1 cup baby spinach leaves
04 - 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
05 - 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced
06 - 1/2 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
07 - 1 small avocado, sliced (optional)

→ Hummus

08 - 3/4 cup plain hummus (store-bought or homemade)

→ Seasonings

09 - Salt and pepper, to taste
10 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)

# How-To Steps:

01 - Lay each whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Spread approximately 3 tablespoons of hummus evenly across each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
03 - Distribute the shredded carrots, baby spinach, sliced cucumber, red bell pepper, red cabbage, and avocado evenly over the hummus on each wrap.
04 - Sprinkle lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice if desired to brighten the flavors.
05 - Tightly roll each wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling and create a neat cylinder.
06 - Slice each wrap in half on the diagonal and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for up to 1 day.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • No cooking required, which means you can assemble this while barely awake and still feel accomplished.
  • The hummus acts as both spread and dressing, saving you a step and a dirty bowl.
02 -
  • Overfilling is the number one cause of wrap failure, so resist the urge to pile on more than the tortilla can comfortably hold.
  • If making ahead, leave out the salt and lemon juice until just before eating to keep the vegetables from releasing water and making the wrap soggy.
03 -
  • Warm the tortilla for ten seconds in a dry skillet before assembling and it will roll without cracking or tearing.
  • Spread the hummus all the way to one edge so that final fold sticks to itself and holds the wrap together.
