Turkey and Hummus Wrap with Veggies

A fresh, satisfying wrap built on whole wheat tortilla spread thick with hummus, then layered with tender sliced turkey, crunchy shredded carrots, cool cucumber sticks, and crisp lettuce. Roll it tight, slice it clean down the middle, and you've got a lunch that travels well and tastes better than anything from a shop. The hummus does double duty as spread and binder, the vegetables add snap and color, and the turkey keeps it hearty. Pack it with pretzels and grapes for a complete meal that holds up in a lunchbox or backpack.

Ingredients

  • 1 large (10-inch) whole wheat tortilla
  • 3 tbsp hummus (plain or any flavor you like)
  • 3 oz sliced turkey breast (deli-style or leftover roasted)
  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and shredded
  • ¼ medium cucumber, cut into thin sticks
  • 2 large leaves romaine or green leaf lettuce, washed and dried
  • 1 oz pretzels (for serving)
  • ½ cup grapes (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Peel and shred 1 medium carrot using a box grater or vegetable peeler.
  2. Cut ¼ medium cucumber into thin sticks, about the length of your pinky finger.
  3. Lay 1 large (10-inch) whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean cutting board or plate.
  4. Spread 3 tbsp hummus evenly across the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving a half-inch border around the edge.
  5. Lay 3 oz sliced turkey breast in a single layer over the hummus, covering most of the tortilla but leaving the border clear.
  6. Arrange 2 large romaine or green leaf lettuce leaves on top of the turkey, tearing them if needed to fit.
  7. Scatter the shredded carrot (1 medium) and cucumber sticks (¼ medium) down the center of the tortilla in a neat line.
  8. Fold in the left and right edges of the tortilla about an inch, then roll it up tightly from the bottom, tucking as you go to keep the fillings snug inside.
  9. Slice the wrap in half on a diagonal with a sharp knife.
  10. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment or foil to pack. Pair with 1 oz pretzels and ½ cup grapes on the side.
