Store bought hummus is an option but homemade hummus tastes 10 times better! This recipe is a quickie that makes a great lunch or snack on the go.
Ingredients
5 whole wheat tortillas
5 cups of spinach
1 ¼ cups of shredded carrots
1 large cucumber
1 large red bell pepper
3-4 roma tomatoes
2 avocados
Hot sauce (optional)
Sprinkle garlic salt
Sprinkle pepper
Sprinkle smoked paprika
Hummus Ingredients:
1 can of chickpeas or 2 cups of cooked chickpeas
¼ cup of tahini
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
2 tablespoons of water
1 clove of garlic (minced)
½ teaspoon of sea salt
¼ teaspoon of cumin
¼ teaspoon of smoked paprika
Pepper to taste
Preparation
For the hummus, drain and rinse chickpeas in warm water. Add chickpeas, along with the remaining hummus ingredients to a food processor or blender and pulse until you end up with a smooth texture. Cut veggies. Place wheat tortilla on a plate (I usually microwave tortilla in a paper towel for 30 seconds first so it is easier to work with) and start with a layer of hummus. Next, layer on a few cucumber slices, tomato, bell pepper, ¼ cup of shredded carrots, 1 cup of spinach, avocado, hot sauce and seasonings. Wrap like a burrito and enjoy!
