Veggie Wrap With Hummus (Printable Version)
Fresh Mediterranean wraps loaded with colorful vegetables and smooth hummus for a satisfying 15-minute meal.
# 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 Make It:
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 layer 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 bundle.
06 - Slice each wrap in half on the diagonal and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
- You will not believe how something so simple can taste so vibrant, and your lunch routine will never be the same.
- It requires zero cooking, which means your kitchen stays cool and your patience stays intact on busy days.
02 -
- Do not skip patting the cucumber slices dry with a paper towel, because excess moisture is the enemy of a crisp wrap.
- I learned the hard way that overfilling leads to wraps that fall apart halfway through eating, so less is genuinely more here.
03 -
- The secret to a wrap that holds together is spreading the hummus all the way to the edges on one side, which acts like glue when you roll it.
- If you are packing these for lunch, wrap them tightly in parchment rather than plastic wrap, because parchment lets them breathe and prevents sogginess.
