Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup hummus with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 1/4 tsp salt to create a creamy spread.
  2. Step 2: Lay out 4 large (10-inch) whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tbsp of the hummus mixture evenly over each tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border around edges.

  4. Step 4: Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the veggies.
  5. Step 5: Starting from one edge, tightly roll each tortilla into a wrap. Slice each wrap diagonally in half and serve immediately or wrap tightly for lunchboxes.
