Wellness Wraps & Hummus Recipes

December 28, 2016

Wellness Wraps are a great alternative to a classic sandwich or wrap. They are loaded with nutrients, AND they are gluten free and plant-based.  

For Wrap

Ingredients

– 1 collard wrap (you could also use romaine, butter lettuce, or a regular gluten free lavash)

– 1/2 bell pepper diced (red, yellow, or orange)

– 1/2 cucumber diced

– 3/4 cup cooked quinoa

– 3 tbsp. hummus 

Directions

Combine quinoa, hummus, cucumber, and diced peppers & mix.  Add more hummus, quinoa or veggies to taste!

*You can add any other desired veggies or beans, such as whole chickpeas, cabbage, or shredded lettuce.  For a spicy kick top off with hot sauce 😀

For Hummus

Ingredients

– 2 cans organic chickpeas

– 2 tbsp. tahini or more for creaminess

– 2 cloves garlic

– 1/2 lemon

– Water as needed to thin

Directions

– In a food processor, combine 1 can drained chickpeas, and 1 can chickpeas with the brine.  (To make a creamier hummus, you can use 1 can of navy beans in replacement of one of the cans of chickpeas). 

– Add remaining ingredients, and blend to desired texture.
