Ingredients
Scale
Wraps and Spread
- 4 large tortillas (whole wheat, spinach, or gluten-free)
- 1 cup hummus (classic, roasted red pepper, or garlic)
Vegetables
- 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup sliced cucumbers
- 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
Extras
- 1 avocado (sliced)
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (omit for vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds or chopped nuts
- 1/4 cup alfalfa or broccoli sprouts
Instructions
- Prep Your Veggies: Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit. Slice or shred them into bite-sized pieces to ensure they fit well inside the wrap and are easy to eat.
- Spread the Hummus: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous, even layer of your chosen hummus over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent filling from spilling out.
- Add the Veggies: Layer the prepared veggies evenly over the hummus. Start with the leafy greens as the base, then add the shredded carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes for a colorful, crunchy mix.
- Customize to Taste: Enhance your wrap by adding slices of avocado for creaminess, crumbled feta cheese for a salty tang (optional), sunflower seeds or chopped nuts for crunch, and sprouts for extra freshness and nutrition.
- Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward to contain the fillings, then tightly roll it from the bottom upwards ensuring all ingredients are securely wrapped inside.
- Slice and Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and presentation. Enjoy the wraps immediately for the best fresh flavor or store them in the refrigerator for later consumption.
Notes
- Use gluten-free tortillas if you have gluten intolerance or want to keep the wraps gluten-free.
- For a vegan option, omit the feta cheese and check that the hummus does not contain any non-vegan ingredients.
- Feel free to swap in any of your favorite fresh vegetables or add a protein such as grilled tofu or chickpeas.
- Wraps are best eaten fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours if wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or stored in an airtight container.
