02 - 1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

→ Vegetables

03 - 1 cup baby spinach leaves
04 - 1 cup mixed salad greens

12 - Salt and pepper, to taste

# How to Make It:

01 - Lay one tortilla flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Spread about 1/4 cup of hummus evenly over the center of the wrap, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
03 - Arrange a handful of baby spinach and mixed salad greens on top of the hummus layer.
04 - Layer shredded carrots, red bell pepper slices, cucumber slices, red onion slices, and avocado slices evenly over the greens.
05 - Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and toasted sunflower seeds if desired, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
06 - Fold in both sides of the tortilla, then roll up tightly from the bottom to fully enclose the filling.
07 - Repeat the layering and rolling process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
08 - Slice each wrap in half diagonally. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper for later enjoyment.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The crunch of fresh vegetables against creamy hummus is the kind of contrast that makes you slow down and actually taste your food.
  • These wraps travel beautifully, wrapped in parchment, and taste just as good two hours later at a park bench or a desk.
02 -
  • Overfilling is the most common mistake, and I learned the hard way when my first attempt erupted vegetables across the countertop like a tiny edible avalanche.
  • Wet vegetables are the enemy of a good wrap, so pat your cucumber slices dry with a paper towel before layering them in.
03 -
  • Toasting the sunflower seeds right before assembling makes a surprising difference that people always notice and ask about.
  • Soaking red onion slices in ice water for five minutes tames the sharpness without losing the crunch.
