Ingredients
  

4 whole wheat tortillas

1 cup hummus (choose your favorite flavor)

1 cup fresh spinach leaves, thoroughly washed and dried

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced

1 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 cup shredded purple cabbage

1 ripe avocado, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional: Crumbled feta cheese or grilled chicken slices for added protein

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fresh Ingredients: Start by washing and drying all your fresh vegetables. Slice the cucumber and red bell pepper into thin strips, and cut the avocado into even slices. Shred the carrots and purple cabbage, then set all of these aside for easy assembly.

    Spread the Hummus: Take one whole wheat tortilla and spread approximately 1/4 cup of hummus evenly across the center of the tortilla, ensuring to leave about a half-inch border along the edges to avoid spills when wrapping.

      Layer the Vegetables: Begin layering your veggies in the middle of the tortilla. Start with a generous handful of spinach leaves, followed by a layer of shredded carrots. Next, add the cucumber slices, red bell pepper strips, and shredded purple cabbage. If you’re choosing to include feta cheese or grilled chicken for extra protein, sprinkle it evenly over the veggie stack.

        Add Creamy Avocado: Take a few slices of avocado and arrange them atop the layered vegetables for that creamy texture.

          Season to Taste: Drizzle a little olive oil over the fillings, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper to enhance the flavors.

            Wrap It Up: Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and then roll from the bottom up tightly, ensuring all the fillings are securely inside. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas.

              Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling. These vibrant wraps are perfect for packing in lunchboxes and can be enjoyed fresh or stored in the refrigerator for a couple of hours until you're ready to eat.
