# What goes in:
→ 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 lemon juice (optional)
# Cooking steps:
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 - Evenly distribute the shredded carrots, baby spinach, sliced cucumber, red bell pepper, red cabbage, and avocado across the hummus layer on each wrap.
04 - Sprinkle lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice if desired for added brightness.
05 - Tightly roll each wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling and create a neat, compact roll.
06 - Slice each wrap in half on the diagonal. Serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
# Tips from flavorandfeast:
01 -
- It takes exactly fifteen minutes from refrigerator to plate, which is faster than deciding what to order for delivery.
- The crunch of fresh vegetables against that creamy hummus layer creates something genuinely satisfying without any cooking at all.
02 -
- Overfilling the wrap is the number one mistake because nothing humbling about watching your beautiful creation fall apart on the first bite.
- Patting wet vegetables dry with a paper towel before assembling prevents the tortilla from getting soggy and tearing during the roll.
03 -
- A thin spread of hummus on both the top and bottom of the tortilla acts like edible glue, holding everything in place while doubling the flavor in each bite.
- Slicing all the vegetables to a similar thickness ensures that no single ingredient dominates the texture and every bite feels balanced.
