Ingredients
Scale
Wraps & Spreads
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- ½ cup plain hummus
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Vegetables
- 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 small carrot, shredded
- ½ cup shredded lettuce
- ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
Cheese & Herbs
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Seasoning
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Tortillas: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of plain hummus over each tortilla to serve as the flavorful base and help hold the filling together.
- Layer the Vegetables and Cheese: Evenly distribute thin cucumber slices, shredded carrot, shredded lettuce, thinly sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese over the hummus-covered tortillas. These fresh ingredients provide a crisp and savory filling.
- Season and Add Herbs: Drizzle each wrap with olive oil, then sprinkle with chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper to enhance the overall flavor and add aromatic notes.
- Roll the Wraps: Tightly roll up each tortilla to encase the fillings securely, forming neat wraps ready to be toasted.
- Toast for Crispiness: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place each rolled wrap seam-side down and toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the tortillas turn golden brown and crisp, enhancing texture and flavor.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them in half diagonally, and serve immediately while warm and crispy for the best eating experience.
