Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
- 2 cups Cooked brown rice
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 large Carrot
- 2 cups Baby spinach leaves
- 1 medium Avocado
- 0.5 cups Hummus
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Start by prepping the vegetables. Thinly slice the red bell pepper and cucumber into strips. Grate or julienne the carrot. Set the vegetables aside in separate bowls.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a creamy spread.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla flat and spread 2 tablespoons of hummus over the surface.
Place ½ cup of cooked brown rice in the center of the tortilla, spreading it out slightly while leaving room at the edges for folding.
Arrange a small handful of baby spinach leaves over the rice. Add a few strips of red bell pepper, cucumber, and carrot on top.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the mashed avocado mixture over the vegetables.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly from the bottom to form a wrap. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.
Slice the wraps in half crosswise, if desired, and serve immediately. Alternatively, wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper to take on the go.
