Description

This Loaded Veggie Hummus Wrap Recipe makes 2 to 4 (or more) wraps depending on how big your veggies are when you chop them. Be creative and use what you have on hand. Try to combine smooth textures with crunch textures, and don’t forget to dress your greens before adding them.


Ingredients

Scale

This is a list of what I like on my favorite wrap; add more or less of what you like and make it your own:

  • wrap or tortilla of choice, I like cassava flour tortillas or whole-grain tortillas
  • hummus, about 2 tablespoons per wrap
  • 1 small avocado, sliced into long strips
  • 1 tomato, sliced into long strips
  • 1 English cucumber, sliced into strips to fit
  • 1 carrot, julienne cut or peels into ribbons with a veggie peeler
  • 1 watermelon radish or radish of your choice, julienne cut
  • 1 red onion, shaved with a veggie peeler or sliced thin (you’ll have a lot leftover for another recipe)
  • a few kalamata olives, sliced
  • 12 handfuls mixed greens (or lettuce of your choice)
  • 12 teaspoons sweet Italian red wine vinaigrette (recipe below)
  • optional: a teaspoon of raw sunflower seeds is a great addition here, too

Sweet Italian Red Wine Vinaigrette

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • Shake or whisk it all up in a small container; makes enough for 8 wraps

Instructions

  1. Optional: If making this right before you eat, heat up your tortilla or wrap in a dry skillet over medium-high heat on both sides for 1-2 minutes. If you’re using a cassava flour tortilla,  I recommend heating it in a dry skilled unit it bubbles slightly (even is making this ahead)—it makes all the difference.
  2. Chop your veggies (into long strips if possible). Consider chopping extra veggies for a wrap later on.
  3. Smooth a few tablespoons of hummus onto the middle of your wrap (leave a 2-inch border if you want to wrap the ends in), then layer on 3-4 big slices of avocado if using.
  4. Layer on the rest of your veggies going the long way down your wrap.
  5. Dress 1-2 big handfuls of mixed greens with 1-2 teaspoons of dressing, then add to the top of your wrap. If desired, drizzle on another teaspoon of dressing over the entire thing.
  6. Fold up and enjoy it! You can eat it like a hummus taco with a small wrap, or fold the sides in then roll it up like a burrito if you have a larger wrap.

Notes

As written this recipe is vegan, but you can add an additional protein or feta or goat cheese (or any other of your favorite veggies or ingredients) if desired.
