This Grilled Veggie and Hummus Wrap is the perfect combination of fresh, smoky flavors wrapped in a healthy whole wheat shell. It's a delightful way to enjoy a variety of grilled vegetables, making it both satisfying and nourishing.
Whole wheat wrap serves as the hearty base, providing fiber and a nutty flavor. Zucchini, with its mild taste, absorbs the smoky flavors beautifully. Red bell pepper adds a sweet crunch and vibrant color. Eggplant rounds out the veggies with its creamy texture when grilled. Olive oil ensures the vegetables grill evenly while enhancing their natural flavors. Salt and pepper bring all the flavors together. Hummus is the creamy, protein-packed spread that holds everything in place. Lemon juice adds a zesty brightness that lifts the dish. Finally, fresh parsley provides a pop of herbal freshness.
This wrap pairs beautifully with a side of tabbouleh or a simple green salad. For a touch of indulgence, consider a side of sweet potato fries. It’s also perfect on its own for a light lunch or dinner.
First, fire up your grill to medium-high heat. While it's heating, slice the zucchini lengthwise, cut the red bell pepper into strips, and slice the eggplant into rounds. Toss these veggies in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Make sure they're well coated but not dripping.
Once your grill is ready, lay the vegetables directly on the grill grates. You'll want to grill them for about 3-4 minutes per side, just until they're tender and have those gorgeous grill marks. Keep an eye on them, as you don't want them to burn.
As the veggies are grilling, spread a generous layer of hummus over the whole wheat wrap. This acts as the flavorful glue that holds the wrap together. Once the vegetables are perfectly grilled, arrange them over the hummus-covered wrap. A sprinkle of lemon juice over the top adds a delightful tanginess, and a bit of chopped parsley brightens everything up.
Now, roll the wrap tightly, ensuring the filling stays put. Slice it in half for easy handling and presentation. Enjoy the explosion of flavors with every bite!
