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
- Preheat oven:
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
- Prepare vegetables:
- 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
- Roast vegetables:
- Roast vegetables for 18–22 minutes, stirring halfway, until tender and slightly caramelized. Remove from oven and let cool slightly
- Warm tortillas:
- Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable
- Make cut:
- With a sharp knife, make a single cut from the center of each tortilla straight out to the edge (creating one radius cut)
- Spread hummus:
- Spread 1/4 cup hummus over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border
- Assemble wrap:
- Imagine the tortilla split into four quarters. Place roasted vegetables on one quarter, spinach on the second, optional feta or parsley on the third, and leave the fourth plain or drizzle with lemon juice
- Fold wrap:
- Starting at the cut, fold each quarter over the next to create a layered triangular snowflake wrap
- Grill wrap:
- 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
- Serve:
- Serve immediately, optionally with extra hummus or a fresh salad
