Prepare the vegetables: Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Peel the cucumber, then slice it into thin strips. Peel the carrot and use a julienne peeler or a knife to cut it into thin strips.
Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly.
Make the avocado hummus: In a food processor, combine the avocado, chickpeas, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, tahini, water, and salt-free seasoning. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Add more water if the hummus is too thick. Stir in chopped fresh parsley.
Place each whole wheat wrap on a flat surface and spread about 2 heaping tablespoons of avocado hummus evenly across each wrap.
Layer the sliced red bell peppers, cucumbers, carrots, and mixed greens evenly on top of the hummus.
Carefully roll each wrap tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to prevent the filling from falling out.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for later.
