Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Zucchini: Wash and slice the zucchini into thin, even strips.
- Red Pepper: Wash, remove the seeds and stem, and slice into thin strips.
- Red Onion: Peel and slice the red onion into thin rings or strips.
- Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Lightly brush or spray the zucchini, red pepper, and red onion with a bit of oil (optional for grilling).
- Place the zucchini, red pepper, and red onion on the grill, cooking each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until they have nice grill marks and are tender.
- Remove the vegetables from the grill and set them aside to cool slightly.
- In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast the almonds for about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until they are golden and fragrant. Be cautious not to burn them.
- Once toasted, remove from heat and let cool.
- Heat the tortillas briefly on the grill or in a microwave for about 20-30 seconds to make them more pliable.
- Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of hummus (1/4 cup per tortilla) evenly over each tortilla.
- Evenly distribute the grilled zucchini, red pepper, red onion, and fresh spinach on top of the hummus.
- Sprinkle the toasted almonds over the vegetables.
- Tightly roll up the tortillas, starting from one end and folding in the sides as you go to enclose the filling.
- Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and presentation.
- Serve the wraps immediately, or wrap them in foil or parchment paper for a packed lunch or picnic.
Tips:
- Roast the zucchini and red pepper to bring out their natural sweetness and add a bit of charred flavor.
- For a creamier texture, use homemade hummus and customize it with your favorite spices.
- Warm the tortillas slightly in a pan or microwave to make them more pliable and easier to wrap.
- If you like some heat, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce.
- Feel free to swap the spinach with other leafy greens like kale or arugula for a different texture and flavor.
There you have it, a simple and nutritious hummus and grilled vegetable wrap that's both flavorful and versatile. Whether you're meal-prepping for the week or need a quick lunch idea, this recipe is sure to become a favorite. Enjoy the burst of freshness and the creamy goodness of hummus in every bite!
