kcalThese roasted veggie and hummus wraps are a delicious combination of tender, caramelized vegetables and creamy hummus rolled into a soft tortilla. The taste is a beautiful balance of savory and fresh, with a hint of nuttiness from the hummus. Each bite offers a satisfying crunch from the veggies, perfectly complementing the smoothness of the hummus.
Ingredients
2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, and red onion), chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 large whole wheat tortillas
1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)
Fresh spinach or lettuce leaves
Optional: Feta cheese or nutritional yeast for topping
Directions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roast the Vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized.
- Prepare the Wraps: Lay out the tortillas and spread a generous layer of hummus on each one. Add fresh spinach or lettuce leaves, followed by the roasted vegetables.
- Wrap It Up: Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to create a secure wrap. Slice in half if desired, and enjoy!
Key Prep Tips
- Roast for Maximum Flavor: Toss vegetables with olive oil, salt, and your favorite herbs (like thyme or smoked paprika) before roasting at a high temperature (around 425°F/220°C) for a caramelized flavor.
- Use Pliable Wraps: Warm the wraps briefly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them easier to roll without breaking.
- Spread Hummus Generously: Cover the entire wrap surface with hummus to act as a “glue” for the veggies and other fillings.
- Cool Veggies Slightly: Let roasted veggies cool for a few minutes to prevent the wraps from becoming soggy.
Suggested Variations
- Protein Additions: Add roasted chickpeas, falafel, or grilled tofu for extra protein.
- Hummus Flavors: Experiment with different hummus flavors like roasted red pepper, garlic, or lemon herb.
- Wrap Alternatives: Use spinach tortillas, whole wheat wraps, or collard greens for a low-carb option.
- Additional Fillings: Include greens like spinach, arugula, or shredded cabbage for a crunchier texture.
Serving Suggestions
- Sides: Pair with a side of quinoa salad, sweet potato fries, or a light cucumber-tomato salad.
- Dips: Serve with extra hummus or a tahini-based dressing for dipping.
- Beverages: Pair with a chilled sparkling water infused with mint or a glass of iced herbal tea.
- Presentation: Cut the wrap diagonally and secure each half with toothpicks for a clean, café-style presentation.
