Heavenly Hummus Wrap (Printable Version)
Crisp vegetables and creamy hummus wrapped in soft tortillas for a fresh Mediterranean meal.
# What You Need:
→ Wraps & Spreads
01 - 4 large whole wheat tortillas or flatbreads
02 - 1 1/2 cups classic hummus (store-bought or homemade)
→ Fresh Vegetables
03 - 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens
04 - 1 cup shredded carrots
05 - 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
06 - 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
07 - 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced
08 - 1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
→ Toppings & Garnishes
09 - 1/4 cup fresh mint or parsley, chopped
10 - 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (omit for vegan)
11 - 2 tbsp pitted Kalamata olives, chopped
12 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
13 - Lemon wedges, for serving
# Directions:
01 - Lay each tortilla or flatbread flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Evenly spread approximately 3 to 4 tablespoons of hummus over each wrap, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent spilling.
03 - Distribute spinach or mixed greens, shredded carrots, cucumber slices, tomato slices, bell pepper strips, and red onion evenly across each wrap.
04 - Sprinkle each wrap with fresh herbs, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped Kalamata olives as desired.
05 - Finish with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
06 - Gently roll up each wrap, tucking in the sides to enclose the fillings securely. Slice diagonally in half for easier handling.
07 - Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the wraps.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- It takes fifteen minutes from fridge to plate and requires zero cooking, which means you can make it even when the stove feels like too much effort.
- The textures play off each other beautifully: silky hummus, snappy vegetables, and the soft chew of a good tortilla.
02 -
- Do not skip leaving that border of bare tortilla around the hummus or the filling will spill out the moment you take a bite.
- Slicing the vegetables uniformly thin is the single thing that makes the difference between a wrap that holds together and one that falls apart in your hands.
03 -
- Warm the tortilla for fifteen seconds in a dry skillet before assembling and it becomes flexible enough to roll tightly without cracking.
- Use the freshest hummus you can find because it is the backbone of every flavor in this wrap and a bland one will drag everything down.
