A vibrant Mediterranean wrap with crisp vegetables and smooth hummus, ready in 15 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)
→ Extras
09 - Salt and pepper, to taste
10 - 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
# How-To:
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 spilling.
03 - Evenly distribute the shredded carrots, baby spinach, sliced cucumber, red bell pepper, red cabbage, and avocado over the hummus layer on each wrap.
04 - Sprinkle lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice if desired to brighten the flavors.
05 - Tightly roll up each wrap, folding in the sides as you go to enclose the filling securely.
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 Tips:
01 -
- Zero cooking means you can assemble this even on the hottest summer day without breaking a sweat.
- The hummus acts as both a creamy dressing and a glue that holds everything together so nothing falls out mid bite.
- It is endlessly adaptable to whatever vegetables are wilting in your crisper drawer right now.
02 -
- Overfilling the wrap is the number one mistake and guarantees everything will tumble out on your plate or worse, your lap.
- If you are making these ahead for meal prep, skip the avocado or toss it in lemon juice first because brown avocado will ruin the whole experience.
03 -
- Shred the carrots on the large holes of a box grater rather than buying pre shredded bags because the texture is juicier and fresher every single time.
- Spread the hummus all the way to the edge of the tortilla before adding filling because it acts like edible glue and keeps the wrap sealed shut.
