Peel and grate the large carrots finely. You should end up with about 2 cups of grated carrot.
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated carrot, chickpea flour, water, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix well until you get a thick batter-like consistency.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of olive oil if necessary.
Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the heated pan and use the back of the ladle to spread it into a thin, round wrap approximately 6-8 inches in diameter.
Cook the wrap for 2-3 minutes on one side until it starts to set and lightly brown, then carefully flip it and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. Repeat this process with the remaining batter to make 4 wraps.
Once all wraps are cooked, let them cool slightly.
Spread a generous layer of hummus on each wrap, leaving a small border around the edges.
Top each wrap with mixed salad greens, julienned cucumber, sliced red bell pepper, and fresh herbs if using. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the veggies for added zest.
Carefully roll up each wrap tightly. Slice in half if desired and serve immediately or wrap in parchment for on-the-go meals.
