Ingredients

1 whole wheat tortilla Tortilla or lavash flat bread of your choice. About 8-9 inches in diameter.
3 ounces hummus
¼ cup baby spinach Approximate amount. Can use small pieces of kale, or hearty salad greens instead.
½ cup fresh vegetables Long thin slices or strips of vegetables such as carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, or blanched green beans.

Instructions

Slice or cut vegetables into long and thin pieces.
Lay the tortilla or lavash flatbread on a clean flat surface (I use a large round plate or kitchen counter). Then, place the hummus in the center of the wrap and spread it out in an even layer, being sure to cover almost the whole surface. See the image in the post for reference.
Place the leafy greens in the center of the wrap (on top of the hummus layer). Then layer the rest of the thinly sliced veggies on top of the salad greens.
Lift one edge of the tortilla, then tightly wrap it over to the other side of the veggies and continue to roll it to make the wrap. Slice it in half and it's ready to serve!

Notes

Nutrition information is estimated based on a database that this owner is not responsible for maintaining. In this instance, it assumes one whole wheat tortilla, that the salad greens are baby spinach, and the only raw veggie is red bell pepper. Exact nutrition information will depend on actual ingredients and amounts used when making this recipe.

Tightly wrap all of the ingredients together as you roll the tortilla so the veggies don't fall out as you eat the wrap.

Leave about one inch of space between where the hummus stops and the edge of the tortilla.

Use long thin strips or long thin slices of vegetables so that the wrap holds together well as you eat it. I like to use a vegetable peeler to make carrot ribbons and long strips of fresh cucumber.

I use a sharp paring knife to slice bell pepper into long thin strips and cucumber into long narrow strips (if I want a little more crunch).

If you add onion when making these wraps, I'd suggest adding thin strips of red onion so that it's easy to pull out if the person or people you are making them for don't like onion. I don't like raw onion, so I just wanted to add this little tip. :)

Spreading the hummus out close to the edges will help the wrap stick together once it's rolled up.

If you like dressing with your wrap, I don't suggest adding it until the end. Even Chick-fil-A serves their Cool Wrap with dressing on the side.
