Spinach Hummus Lunch Wraps (Printable)

Quick Mediterranean-style wraps packed with creamy spinach hummus and colorful fresh vegetables.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Spinach Hummus

01 - 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
02 - 2 cups fresh baby spinach
03 - 1 large garlic clove
04 - 3 tbsp tahini
05 - 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
06 - 2 tbsp olive oil
07 - 1/2 tsp ground cumin
08 - 1/2 tsp salt
09 - 2–3 tbsp cold water, as needed for consistency

→ Wraps & Fillings

10 - 4 large whole wheat tortillas
11 - 1 cup shredded carrots
12 - 1 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced
13 - 1/2 cup sliced cucumber
14 - 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
15 - 1/2 avocado, sliced
16 - 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or non-dairy yogurt alternative (optional)
17 - 2 tbsp fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped

# Directions:

01 - Combine the drained chickpeas, baby spinach, garlic clove, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, and salt in a food processor. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the hummus reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency.
02 - Lay each whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean work surface. Spread 2 to 3 tablespoons of the spinach hummus evenly across each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
03 - Arrange the shredded carrots, sliced red bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, and avocado slices in a horizontal line across the center of each tortilla. Drizzle with yogurt if using, and sprinkle with chopped parsley or cilantro.
04 - Fold in the left and right sides of each tortilla, then tightly roll from the bottom up to enclose the fillings. Slice each wrap in half on a diagonal. Serve immediately, or wrap individually in parchment paper for a portable lunch.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The hummus comes together in about three minutes flat and tastes better than anything store bought.
  • Everything rolls up neatly so you can eat one handed while typing emails or walking to the park.
  • That bright green color makes people think you spent hours when you barely turned on the food processor.
02 -
  • Do not skip patting the cucumber slices dry or you will open your lunch bag to a sad soggy mess.
  • The hummus will thicken slightly in the fridge so make it a touch looser than you think it needs to be.
03 -
  • Let the hummus rest in the fridge for thirty minutes before spreading because the flavors meld and the texture settles into something silkier.
  • Warm the tortillas for fifteen seconds in a dry skillet and they will become infinitely more pliable and cooperative.
