Start by preparing the avocado hummus. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a food processor.
Add lemon juice, tahini, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper to the food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Wash the romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel.
Arrange the lettuce leaves on a clean surface and spread about 1 tablespoon of the avocado hummus onto each leaf.
Divide the julienned red bell pepper, carrot, cucumber, and shredded purple cabbage evenly among the lettuce leaves.
If using fresh cilantro, sprinkle some over the vegetables for added flavor.
Carefully roll each lettuce leaf into a wrap, starting from the bottom and tucking the sides in as you roll upwards to secure the filling.
Serve the wraps immediately as a fresh snack or light meal, or refrigerate for a few hours in an airtight container if preparing in advance.
