I discovered this wrap hack when looking for a healthy lunch that stays neat and delicious even on the go.
Ingredients
- Vegetables: 1 medium red bell pepper sliced, 1 medium zucchini sliced into half-moons, 1 small red onion thinly sliced, 1 medium carrot julienned, 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- Roasting & Seasoning: 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Wraps & Spreads: 4 large flour tortillas or whole wheat wraps, 1 cup classic or roasted garlic hummus
- Optional Additions: 1/4 cup crumbled feta omit for vegan, 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or cilantro, 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Step 1:
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Step 2:
- Arrange bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and carrot on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Step 3:
- Roast vegetables for 18–22 minutes, stirring halfway, until tender and slightly caramelized. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Step 4:
- Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
- Step 5:
- With a sharp knife, make a single cut from the center of each tortilla straight out to the edge (creating one radius cut).
- Step 6:
- Spread 1/4 cup hummus over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border.
- Step 7:
- Imagine the tortilla split into four quarters. Place roasted vegetables on one quarter, spinach on the second, optional feta/parsley on the third, and leave the fourth plain or drizzle with lemon juice.
- Step 8:
- Starting at the cut, fold each quarter over the next to create a layered triangular snowflake wrap.
- Step 9:
- For a warm, crisp finish, grill the folded wrap in a skillet for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden and heated through.
- Step 10:
- Serve immediately, optionally with extra hummus or a fresh salad.
