Hummus & Veggie Wrap
A quick, healthy, and satisfying wrap packed with creamy hummus, fresh vegetables, and protein-rich chickpeas. Perfect for a light lunch or a grab-and-go meal ready in minutes.
For 4 servings
Prepare the filling
- In a small bowl, gently toss the chickpeas, shredded carrots, cucumber sticks, and bell pepper slices.
- Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss lightly to combine.
Warm the tortillas
- Heat a dry non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Warm each tortilla for about 30 seconds per side, until soft and pliable. This prevents them from cracking when you roll them.
Assemble the wraps
- Lay a warm tortilla on a flat surface.
- Spread about 1/4 cup of hummus evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Place a handful (about 1 cup) of baby spinach over the hummus.
- Spoon a quarter of the vegetable and chickpea mixture in a line down the center of the spinach.
Roll and serve
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla first.
- Tightly roll the tortilla from the bottom up to enclose the filling, like a burrito.
- Slice the wrap in half on a diagonal, if desired, and serve immediately.
What to keep in mind.
5 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1For meal prep, prepare the vegetable filling and store it separately from the hummus and tortillas to prevent sogginess.
- 2To add extra flavor, try using roasted red pepper hummus or garlic hummus.
- 3Don't overfill the wrap, as it will be difficult to roll and may tear.
- 4For a bit of crunch, add a tablespoon of sunflower seeds or chopped almonds.
- 5If you're not eating it right away, wrap it tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap to hold its shape.
