On a baking sheet, toss 1 medium sliced zucchini, 1 large sliced red bell pepper, 1 large julienned carrot, and 1 small thinly sliced red onion with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper.

- Step 3: Warm 4 large whole wheat tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.

- Step 5: Drizzle 1-2 tbsp of the tahini dressing over the fillings in each wrap.
- Step 6: Fold in the sides and roll tightly to form wraps. Slice in half diagonally and serve chilled or at room temperature.
