Ingredients
- 2 large whole wheat tortillas (or your favorite wrap)
- 1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and sliced
- 1 cup mixed salad greens (spinach, arugula, or lettuce)
- 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
- ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
- ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup shredded carrots
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (optional for vegetarians; omit for vegan)
- 2 tablespoons hummus (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)
Equipment
- Cutting board
- Sharp knife
- Mixing bowl
- Spoon or fork (for mashing avocado if desired)
- Measuring spoons
- Non-stick skillet or grill pan (optional for warming wraps)
- Serving plate
Instructions
- Prepare the avocado: Slice the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. You can slice it or mash it gently with a fork in a bowl. Add fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the avocado to enhance its flavor and prevent browning.
- Prep the veggies: Thinly slice the tomato, cucumber, and red onion. Shred the carrots if not pre-shredded. Rinse and dry the salad greens thoroughly.
- Warm the tortillas: Optional but recommended. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and warm each tortilla for 20-30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable and tasty.
- Assemble the wrap: Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus evenly over each tortilla. Then layer the salad greens, tomato slices, cucumber, red onion, shredded carrots, and avocado on top.
- Add cheese and herbs: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the veggies and garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if using.
- Season: Drizzle olive oil over the fillings and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Roll up the wrap: Fold the sides of the tortilla slightly and then roll it tightly from the bottom up, securing the contents inside.
- Serve: Cut the wraps diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap tightly in foil for a packed lunch.
Tips & Variations
Use ripe avocados for the best creamy texture and flavor. If your avocado isn’t quite ripe, leave it at room temperature for a day or two.
You can customize this wrap in many ways:
- Vegan option: Skip the feta cheese or replace it with vegan cheese or extra hummus.
- Add protein: Include cooked chickpeas, black beans, or grilled tofu for added protein.
- Spice it up: Add a dash of hot sauce, crushed red pepper flakes, or a sprinkle of cumin for a smoky flavor.
- Use different greens: Try kale or romaine lettuce for a crunchier bite.
- Wrap alternatives: Use gluten-free or spinach tortillas for different flavors and dietary needs.
