Veggie Wrap With Hummus (Printable)
Colorful vegetables and creamy hummus wrapped in whole wheat tortillas for a satisfying meal.
# What You'll 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 lemon juice (optional)
# How To Make It:
01 - Lay each tortilla wrap flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Spread approximately 3 tablespoons of hummus evenly over each wrap, leaving a small border around the edges.
03 - Evenly distribute the shredded carrots, baby spinach, sliced cucumber, red bell pepper, red cabbage, and avocado slices over the hummus on each wrap.
04 - Sprinkle lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
05 - Tightly roll up each wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
06 - Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- It takes exactly fifteen minutes from fridge to plate, which means you can make it while your coffee is still brewing.
- The crunch of fresh vegetables against creamy hummus is the kind of texture contrast that makes you forget you are eating something healthy.
02 -
- Overfilling the wrap is the single biggest mistake, and I learned this after watching my beautiful creation fall apart on the plate in front of guests.
- Wrapping the finished rolls in parchment paper before refrigerating keeps the tortilla from drying out and makes them portable for lunch the next day.
03 -
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for fifteen seconds per side before assembling, because a pliable wrap never cracks and always rolls tighter.
- Pat the cucumber slices dry with a paper towel before layering, since excess moisture is the enemy of a wrap that holds together until the last bite.
