To make my hummus wraps you will need:

- chickpeas
- baby spinach leaves
- cucumber
- yellow capsicum
- red capsicum
- avocado
- alfalfa sprouts
- salt and pepper
Ingredients Notes & Substitutions
- Hummus: use your favourite store-bought or homemade hummus, I used a combination of beetroot hummus and roasted garlic hummus.
- Capsicum: Bell peppers add lovely colour, I used yellow and red but you can substitute any of your favourite salad vegetables.
- Cucumber: I used fresh cucumber but pickled cucumbers are also lovely in this wrap.
- Chickpeas: These are not essential but I love the texture they add to the sandwich.
- Other vegetable fillings: Shredded cabbage, lettuce, carrots, pickled carrots, or carrot pesto, arugula, pea sprouts, grated beetroot, thinly sliced red onions.
- Tomatoes: Tomatoes are lovely in wraps, but if I am making a hummus wrap for a packed lunch I skip them so that my wrap does not go soggy.
- Wrap: Any flatbread or tortilla will be fine. I used gluten-free tortillas when I made this recipe.
