HUMMUS AND VEGGIE WRAP

by

Ingredients:

  • Wrap Base:
    • 1 large whole wheat or spinach tortilla (or your preferred wrap)
  • Hummus:
    • 1/4 to 1/2 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)
  • Veggies:
    • 1/2 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens
    • 1/4 cup sliced cucumber
    • 1/4 cup grated carrots
    • 1/4 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
    • 1/4 avocado, sliced (optional)
    • 2 tablespoons sliced red onion (optional)
  • Seasoning (optional):
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • A sprinkle of red pepper flakes or your favorite seasoning (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Wrap:
    • Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface or cutting board.
  2. Spread the Hummus:
    • Spread the hummus evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving about an inch around the edges.
  3. Layer the Vegetables:
    • Start layering the veggies on one side of the wrap: begin with spinach or mixed greens, then add cucumber, grated carrots, bell peppers, avocado, and red onion (if using).
    • Feel free to adjust the quantities of veggies based on your preference.
  4. Season:
    • Sprinkle salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings over the vegetables for extra flavor.
  5. Roll the Wrap:
    • Starting from the side with the veggies, tightly roll the tortilla away from you, tucking in the sides as you go to keep the filling inside.
    • Once rolled, slice the wrap in half diagonally.
  6. Serve:
    • Enjoy your Hummus and Veggie Wrap as a healthy lunch or snack!

Tips:

  • You can add other ingredients like roasted red peppers, sprouts, or feta cheese for more flavor.
  • These wraps can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for a quick grab-and-go meal.
  • If you’re packing the wrap for lunch, consider wrapping it in foil or parchment paper to keep it fresh.

Enjoy your nutritious and delicious Hummus and Veggie Wrap!
