Spinach Hummus Lunch Wraps (Printable)
Wholesome Mediterranean wraps with creamy hummus and fresh crisp vegetables ready in minutes.
# What You'll Need:
→ Wraps & Spreads
01 - 4 large whole wheat tortillas
02 - 1 cup hummus, store-bought or homemade
→ Vegetables
03 - 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
04 - 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
05 - 1 medium carrot, julienned
06 - 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced
07 - 1 small avocado, sliced
→ Optional Additions
08 - 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (omit for vegan version)
09 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
10 - Fresh lemon wedges, for serving
# How To Make:
01 - Lay one whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean work surface or cutting board.
02 - Spread 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across the center of the tortilla, leaving approximately a 1-inch border around the edges.
03 - Arrange 1/2 cup of baby spinach leaves over the hummus, followed by sliced cucumber, julienned carrot, red bell pepper strips, and avocado slices.
04 - Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh herbs over the layered vegetables if desired.
05 - Roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other, folding in the sides to enclose the filling. Slice diagonally in half.
06 - Repeat the layering and rolling process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
07 - Serve the wraps immediately alongside fresh lemon wedges for a bright, citrusy finish.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- No cooking required, which means you can assemble these half asleep and still end up with something gorgeous and satisfying.
- The crunch of fresh vegetables against creamy hummus is the kind of texture contrast that makes you forget you are eating something healthy.
02 -
- Do not skip the one inch border of hummus because that exposed tortilla edge is what grips and holds the roll together when you wrap it.
- Pat the cucumber slices dry with a paper towel before layering them because excess moisture is the enemy of a wrap that holds its shape.
03 -
- Julienne the carrot as finely as possible because thick matchsticks will poke through the tortilla when you roll and create tears that undo all your careful layering.
- Room temperature tortillas roll without cracking, so take them out of the fridge ten minutes before you start building your wraps.
