Ingredients

  • Whole wheat tortillas, spinach tortillas, or large lettuce leaves (for a low-carb option)
  • Fresh spinach leaves, romaine lettuce, kale (stems removed), and arugula
  • Thinly sliced cucumbers
  • Shredded carrots
  • Ripe avocados
  • Thinly sliced bell peppers
  • Fresh cilantro, mint leaves, and flat-leaf parsley (chopped finely)
  • Grilled chicken strips (optional)
  • Chickpeas (mashed or whole, optional)
  • Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • Hummus (classic or roasted red pepper)
  • Greek yogurt mixed with lemon juice and garlic
  • Light tahini drizzle
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • Smoked paprika
  • Fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prep your veggies (10 minutes): Rinse all greens and herbs thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels or spin in a salad spinner until mostly dry. Thinly slice cucumbers, bell peppers, and carrots. Remove kale stems and tear leaves into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Mix your spreads (5 minutes): Combine Greek yogurt with fresh lemon juice and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Alternatively, warm hummus slightly for easier spreading.
  3. Assemble the wraps (10 minutes): Lay tortilla or lettuce leaf flat. Spread about 2 tablespoons of chosen spread. Layer spinach or romaine, then add sliced veggies and herbs. Add protein if using.
  4. Season and roll (5 minutes): Sprinkle smoked paprika, salt, and pepper over fillings. Drizzle tahini or lemon juice if desired. Fold sides tightly and roll to enclose fillings. Secure with toothpick if needed.
  5. Chill and serve (optional): Wrap each wrap in parchment or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes before serving to meld flavors and ease slicing.

Notes

Pat veggies dry to avoid soggy wraps. Spread hummus or yogurt first to create a moisture barrier. Roll wraps tightly but gently to prevent bursting. Chill wraps before serving for better flavor melding and easier slicing. Assemble just before serving to keep fresh.
