Veggie Wrap with Hummus Recipe

I often get asked what I eat for lunch or how to incorporate veggies into lunch without turning to a salad. I get it! Lunch isn’t the time for a three-hour meal prep session. I like to have a meal replacement smoothie or a veggie wrap with hummus for lunch.

Veggie wrap ingredients for a healthy lunch, including a rainbow of vegetables, everything bagel seasoning, hummus, and some sun-dried tomato tortilla shells.

Ingredients You’ll Need

This hummus veggie wrap recipe packs in the vegetables and has a protein boost, thanks to the hummus. You can make a few at a time to enjoy throughout the week to save more time on lunch prep. If you’re real hungry, serve this tortilla vegetable wrap with a Layered Greek Dip or Garlic Baked Chickpeas to make it a well-rounded meal.

I love the versatility of a veggie wrap—I try to make it different eeach time to get a variety of flavors and vegetables. High-fiber vegetables paired with protein-rich hummus makes them filling and nutritious.

Tortilla shells (burrito-sized, any variety): Choose large, soft tortilla shells to wrap all the flavorful ingredients. Whole wheat or gluten-free options work well too.
Hummus: A creamy and protein-rich spread that adds a delicious, tangy base to your wrap. You can use any type of hummus— I lean towards roasted red pepper and garlic.
Spinach: Fresh spinach leaves provide a nutrient-packed, leafy green layer with a mild flavor.
Yellow bell pepper (cut into strips): Sweet and crunchy, these vibrant strips add a pop of color and a fresh, crisp bite.
Cucumber (cut into matchsticks): Cool and refreshing, cucumbers bring a light crunch to balance the wrap’s textures.
Carrots (grated): These bright, sweet shreds offer a satisfying crunch and a boost of vitamins.
Beets (grated): Earthy and slightly sweet, grated beets add vibrant color and antioxidants to the mix.
Red onion (cut into strips): Thin strips of red onion introduce a sharp, zesty flavor that complements the other ingredients. Swap with pickled red onions or jalapenos for additional flavor.
Lemon (cut into wedges): A squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds a burst of citrusy brightness to your wrap.
Olive oil: Drizzle a little olive oil for a smooth finish and enhanced flavor.
Everything bagel seasoning: Sprinkle this versatile seasoning for a savory, flavorful twist that ties everything together.

How to assemble a hummus wrap in 4 easy steps: first spreading hummus, then spinach, then veggies, then seasoning.

How to Make a Veggie Wrap

Spread your hummus out on an empty shell for your wrap. The key to a good wrap is leaving about one inch of space at the edge that is hummus and veggie-free. That way you’ve got something to hold on to when you gather it all up.
Place spinach evenly across the hummus and add the rest of your veggies on just half of the shell so you’ve got room to start your wrap.
Season your veggies with olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and everything bagel seasoning.
Close up your veggie tortilla by taking the empty corner of the side with veggies and pull it over the top of the filling. Then tuck that edge under the veggies tightly to keep them secure.
Use parchment or wax paper to store it so you can easily unwrap and eat a portion at a time after your wrap is finished. Every sandwich shop does this— and it really helps.

Ingredient Swaps

Sauce swaps: If hummus won’t work for you then try spreading coconut sriracha, hemp sauce, pesto or vegan avocado crema on your wrap.

Spinach swaps: Any leafy green works in this recipe. I like swapping spinach with kale, arugula or dark green romaine. Cabbage is another deliciously crunchy option.

Alternative veggies: Tomatoes, avocado slices, zucchini, radishes, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and more work well together. Just use what you have on hand and don’t worry about following my vegetable wrap recipe perfectly.

Spices: If you really want to up the flavor, add a Greek or Italian seasoning blend. Sea salt and pepper are a classic combo. A bit of garlic salt would also work well.

Gluten-free wrap Suggestions

If the flour tortilla shells I used are what’s holding you back from this hummus wrap, then use a different option! Try swiss chard leaves or a gluten-free wrap like Siete Grain-free wraps.

Common Questions

How do you make the best veggie wrap?

The key to a great veggie wrap is gently warming the tortilla first. I do this directly on my gas oven, yet you can also use a microwave or toaster oven. Next, spread hummus on the wrap (or tortilla) to make sure it is covered evenly, then I add the spinach to spread it out too. Next, I layer on the veggies until I’m satisfied. To wrap it well, I leave a one-inch edge around the wrap free from sauce and veggies so I can tuck it in nice and tight. Finally, I use parchment or wax paper around the finished product for easy handling and storage.

Is a veggie wrap good for you?

Homemade wraps filled with vegetables and hummus are a great healthy lunch option. The high fiber vegetables and protein-rich hummus also give you little bit of healthy fats to help break down the carbs. Feel free to use lettuce or the gluten-free wrap of your choice to make this lunch work for you.

How many carbs are in a veggie wrap?

This hummus veggie wrap has 39 carbs, 7 grams of protein and 12 grams of fat. It’s one of the most nutrient- dense wraps for lunch thanks to the vegetables and hummus packed inside. If you’re watching your carbs, swap the tortilla for a swiss chard leaf or low-carb alternative.
