Step 1: Prepare All Vegetables
Wash and thoroughly dry all your vegetables—this is essential for preventing soggy wraps. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces, slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons, cut the bell pepper into thin strips, shred the carrots if needed, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the red onion paper-thin. If using avocado, slice it just before assembly and toss with a little lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step 2: Warm the Tortillas (Optional but Recommended)
For the most pliable, easy-to-roll wraps, warm your tortillas slightly. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for 10-15 seconds per side, microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel for 15-20 seconds, or leave them at room temperature for 10 minutes if they’ve been refrigerated. Warm tortillas are much less likely to crack or tear when rolling.

Step 3: Spread the Hummus Base
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean work surface or large plate. Spread about 1/4 cup of hummus in an even layer across the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges. Don’t skip the edges—the hummus acts as “glue” that helps seal the wrap. Use the back of a spoon or an offset spatula for even spreading.

Step 4: Layer the Vegetables Strategically
In the center third of the tortilla (forming a horizontal line from left to right), layer your vegetables in this order: Start with lettuce or greens as your base, then add cucumber slices, bell pepper strips, shredded carrots, tomatoes, red onion, avocado slices if using, and finally sprinkle with feta cheese and fresh herbs if using. Keep the vegetables in a concentrated line rather than spreading them all over—this makes rolling much easier.

Step 5: Season and Add Final Touches
Squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over the vegetables, then sprinkle lightly with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes or za’atar. Don’t overdo the seasoning—the hummus and feta already provide plenty of flavor.

Step 6: Roll the Wrap Tightly
This is the crucial step! Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up and over the filling, tucking it under the vegetables snugly. Fold in both sides of the tortilla toward the center like an envelope, then continue rolling tightly away from you, keeping the sides tucked in and applying gentle but firm pressure. The hummus on the edges will help seal the wrap closed.

Step 7: Slice and Serve
Place the wrap seam-side down on a cutting board. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the wrap in half diagonally for easier eating and a beautiful presentation. For meal prep, wrap tightly in parchment paper, foil, or plastic wrap before refrigerating.

Step 8: Enjoy Immediately or Store
These wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. If eating immediately, serve with extra hummus for dipping, chips, or a side salad. If packing for lunch, keep refrigerated until ready to eat.
