# What You'll Need:

→ Hummus

01 - 1 cup plain hummus, store-bought or homemade

→ Vegetables

02 - 2 cups fresh baby spinach, washed and dried
03 - 1 medium carrot, julienned
04 - 1 small cucumber, cut into strips
05 - 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced

# How-To Steps:

01 - Lay the tortillas flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Spread approximately 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across each tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
03 - Arrange a generous layer of fresh spinach leaves over the hummus on each tortilla.
04 - Distribute the julienned carrot, cucumber strips, sliced bell pepper, and avocado evenly among the wraps.
05 - Drizzle each wrap with lemon juice and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
06 - Carefully roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
07 - Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment paper for a portable lunch.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • No cooking required, which means zero stovetime and almost zero cleanup on busy days.
  • The crunch of fresh vegetables against creamy hummus is genuinely addictive and satisfies without weighing you down.
02 -
  • Wet spinach is the enemy of a good wrap, so pat those leaves completely dry with a clean towel before assembling or the tortilla will turn soggy within minutes.
  • Overfilling is tempting but guarantees a wrap that bursts open, so stick to moderate portions and trust that the flavors will deliver even with less inside.
03 -
  • Warm each tortilla in a dry skillet for about fifteen seconds before assembling, which makes it pliable enough to roll tightly without cracking along the fold.
  • Layer the heaviest and driest ingredients closest to the tortilla and the delicate ones like avocado on top, creating a natural barrier that keeps the wrap from getting soggy.
