Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large tortillas or pita pockets
- 1 cup Hummus
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 cups Baby spinach or mixed greens
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese (optional)
- 1 cup Cooked chickpeas or grilled chicken (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry.
Peel the carrot and cut it into thin matchstick-like strips (julienne).
Slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons.
Chop the cherry tomatoes in half and dice the red bell pepper into small strips.
In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and ground black pepper to make a light dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, carrot, and baby spinach (or mixed greens). Drizzle the dressing over the veggies and toss to coat evenly.
Lay one tortilla flat or open a pita pocket gently to make room for the filling.
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of hummus evenly over the tortilla or inside the pita pocket.
Add a generous portion of the dressed veggie mix over the hummus.
If desired, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and cooked chickpeas or grilled chicken for extra flavor and protein.
For a wrap: Roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, to create a neat wrap. Slice in half for easier handling if needed.
For a pocket: Stuff the pita with the filling, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas or pita pockets.
Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper for an on-the-go meal.
