Start by preparing the vegetables. Wash the zucchini, red bell pepper, eggplant, and portobello mushrooms. Cut the zucchini and eggplant into thin slices, the red bell pepper into strips, and remove the stems from the mushrooms.
In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the sliced vegetables to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the seasoning.
Heat a grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
Grill the vegetables in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the grill. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and have nice grill marks.
While the vegetables are grilling, slice the lemon in half and squeeze its juice over the grilled vegetables for added flavor.
Warm the whole wheat flatbreads on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or until they are soft and pliable.
To assemble the durum kebabs, spread a generous layer of hummus onto each flatbread.
Place a quarter of the grilled vegetables in the center, followed by a handful of mixed salad greens and a few slices of red onion.
Carefully roll each flatbread into a tight wrap, folding in the sides as you go to encase the fillings.
Serve the Vegetarian Durum Kebabs immediately, while the flatbreads and vegetables are warm.
