Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Roasted Veggie and Hummus Wraps

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure the perfect roasting temperature for your vegetables. While the oven warms up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier. This simple preparation step sets the stage for delicious Roasted Veggie and Hummus Wraps.

Step 2: Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and chop the red, yellow, and green bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, and carrots into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, toss the chopped veggies with two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, along with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Make sure everything is evenly coated, as this will enhance the flavors of your Roasted Veggie and Hummus Wraps.

Step 3: Roast the Vegetables
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place them in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Stir the veggies halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly. You’ll know they’re ready when they are tender and slightly crisp, creating a delightful mix of textures for your wraps.

Step 4: Cool the Veggies
Once the vegetables are beautifully roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. This cooling period helps to prevent sogginess when you assemble your Roasted Veggie and Hummus Wraps. As the veggies cool, you can get ready for the next delicious step.

Step 5: Assemble the Wraps
Take a whole wheat tortilla and spread about ½ cup of creamy hummus evenly over it. Next, layer on a generous portion of the cooled roasted vegetables followed by a handful of fresh spinach. Starting from one end, roll the tortilla tightly around the fillings. If needed, secure the wrap with toothpicks to keep everything together while you savor your wholesome meal.
