Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine grated carrots, chickpea flour, ground flaxseed, water, sea salt, turmeric powder, and cumin powder.
Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a thick batter-like consistency. If the mixture is too dry, add small splashes of water until it holds together.
Scoop about 1/4 of the mixture and spread it onto the parchment paper in a thin circular layer to form a wrap, approximately 6-8 inches in diameter. Repeat for the remaining batter to make four wraps.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the wraps are firm and slightly golden around the edges. Allow them to cool slightly before removing them from the parchment paper.
While the wraps are baking, prepare the filling by arranging the cooked quinoa, hummus, spinach leaves, cherry tomatoes, and sliced avocado in individual bowls.
Once the wraps are cooled and pliable, spread a layer of hummus onto each wrap.
Layer with a handful of spinach leaves, a portion of cooked quinoa, cherry tomatoes, and avocado slices. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds if desired for added crunch.
Carefully roll each wrap tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to form a neat, sealed wrap.
Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper for a portable, healthy meal. These wraps can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
