→ Vegetables
03 - 1 cup red bell pepper, julienned
04 - 1 cup cucumber, seeded and julienned

11 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
# Steps:
01 - Lay one whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean work surface.
02 - Spread 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across the center of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
03 - Arrange baby spinach, julienned red bell pepper, cucumber, shredded carrots, avocado slices, and halved cherry tomatoes over the hummus layer.
04 - Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and chopped parsley or cilantro if desired. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice for brightness.
05 - Fold in both sides of the tortilla, then roll up tightly from the bottom edge to form a secure wrap.
06 - Cut the wrap in half diagonally if desired. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling ingredients to yield 4 wraps. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper for portable enjoyment.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- Zero cooking required, which means your kitchen stays cool and your patience stays intact on even the laziest days.
- The crunch of fresh vegetables against the smooth hummus is the kind of contrast that makes you forget you are eating something healthy.
- It is endlessly adaptable, so whatever is wilting in your crisper drawer can find a dignified second act right here.
02 -
- Do not skip seeding the cucumber, because the extra moisture will turn your wrap into a sad wet log within hours.
- Letting the assembled wraps rest seam side down for a minute before slicing helps them hold their shape and stay tightly rolled.
03 -
- Warm the tortilla for ten seconds in a dry skillet before assembling, because a pliable wrap is the difference between a clean roll and a torn mess.
- Spread the hummus all the way to the edge of one side before adding filling, so the final roll seals itself shut like an edible envelope.
