Ingredients
Wraps and Spread
- 4 large whole-wheat tortillas or wraps
- ½ cup hummus
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Vegetables
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium carrot, peeled and shredded
- 1 small cucumber, cut into thin strips
- 1 cup purple cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
Optional
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Slice the red and yellow bell peppers and cucumber into thin strips. Peel and shred the carrot, finely shred the purple cabbage, and thinly slice the ripe avocado.
- Make the seasoned hummus spread: In a small bowl, combine the hummus with lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly blended.
- Lay the tortillas flat: Place the whole-wheat tortillas on a clean, flat surface, ready for assembly.
- Spread the hummus: Evenly spread the seasoned hummus mixture over each tortilla, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges to allow for easier rolling.
- Add the greens: Arrange a layer of baby spinach in the center of each tortilla as the base layer for the veggies.
- Layer the vegetables: Top the spinach with the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, shredded carrot, cucumber strips, purple cabbage, and avocado slices in that order for a colorful, textured wrap.
- Add optional feta cheese: If using, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly over the layered vegetables for added flavor and creaminess.
- Roll the wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla to contain the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up, ensuring the fillings are secure inside.
- Slice and serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally for an appealing presentation and serve immediately for the best texture and freshness.
Notes
- Use your favorite hummus flavor, such as roasted garlic, classic, or roasted red pepper, to customize the taste.
- Add shredded lettuce, sprouts, tomatoes, or roasted vegetables for extra variety and nutrition.
- For added protein, include grilled chicken, chickpeas, or baked tofu inside the wraps.
- Warm the tortillas for 10–15 seconds before assembling to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
- Avoid adding too much dressing or wet vegetables if preparing the wraps ahead to prevent sogginess.
- Wrap tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours to maintain freshness and texture.
