How to Make It
Note: This is an overview. See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.
Prep your vegetables. Start by washing and prepping your veggies. Thinly slice cucumbers and bell peppers, shred the carrots, and tear fresh spinach leaves into smaller pieces if needed. Slice a perfectly ripe avocado to add a creamy texture to the wraps.
Get your tortilla ready. Place a soft, whole wheat tortilla on a clean, flat surface like a cutting board or countertop. Using a spoon or spatula, spread a generous layer of creamy hummus across the tortilla, ensuring even coverage right up to the edges.
Layer the fillings. Begin with a handful of fresh spinach leaves to form the base, followed by a mix of the vibrant veggies. Arrange them in layers to create a balance of flavors and textures. Top with avocado slices and a sprinkle of sunflower seeds or nuts for a delightful crunch.
Roll the wrap. Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inward to hold the fillings in place, then roll it tightly from one end to the other. The goal is to create a snug wrap that holds its shape while still showcasing some of the vibrant fillings.
Slice and serve. Use a sharp knife to cut the wrap in half diagonally for a neat presentation. Arrange the pieces on a plate and serve immediately, or pack them up for a meal on the go. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as they are.
Pro Tips
- Spread evenly: Make sure to spread your hummus or sauce evenly to hold the veggies in place.
- Use fresh wraps: Fresh tortillas or wraps roll easier without cracking.
- Switch it up: Experiment with different spreads like guacamole, tzatziki, or pesto for a flavor twist.
- Pack it right: If you’re taking this on the go, wrap it in parchment paper to keep everything secure.
Storage
- In the fridge: Wrap the assembled veggie wraps tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper. Store for up to 24 hours for maximum freshness.
- Make-ahead tip: Prep your veggies and store them separately in airtight containers. Assemble wraps when ready to eat.
