A quick, healthy, and colorful wrap featuring fresh veggies and creamy hummus wrapped in a soft tortilla. Perfect for a light lunch or snack that’s easy to customize and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Whole wheat or spinach tortillas
  • ½ cup (120 ml) hummus per wrap (classic chickpea, roasted red pepper, or garlic-flavored)
  • Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • Yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • Carrots, julienned or shredded
  • Cucumber, thinly sliced or julienned
  • Red cabbage, thinly shredded
  • Baby spinach or mixed greens, a handful per wrap
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • Lemon juice, a squeeze
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash all produce thoroughly. Thinly slice the red and yellow bell peppers into strips about ¼ inch thick. Julienne the carrots and cucumber into matchstick-sized pieces. Shred the red cabbage finely. Rinse and dry your spinach or mixed greens.
  2. In a small bowl, toss the spinach or mixed greens with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Briefly warm each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-20 seconds per side or wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds to make them pliable.
  4. Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about ½ cup (120 ml) of hummus evenly over the surface, leaving about an inch border around the edges.
  5. Starting with the dressed greens, spread a handful evenly over the hummus. Follow with the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, carrots, cucumber, and shredded cabbage. Keep the veggies evenly distributed and avoid overfilling.
  6. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley or cilantro over the veggies. Add a light sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired.
  7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla slightly, then tightly roll from one end to the other, keeping the filling snug inside. Secure with a toothpick or wrap in parchment paper if needed.
  8. Slice the wrap diagonally in half for presentation. Serve immediately or wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Slice just before serving if stored.

Notes

Use firm, crisp veggies for best texture. Warm tortillas slightly to make rolling easier and prevent tearing. Prepare veggies ahead but assemble wraps just before eating to avoid sogginess. Customize with protein additions or different spreads as desired.
