Ingredients

• 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
• 2 cups Cooked brown rice
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 small Cucumber
• 1 large Carrot
• 2 cups Baby spinach leaves
• 1 medium Avocado
• 0.5 cups Hummus
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by prepping the vegetables. Thinly slice the red bell pepper and cucumber into strips. Grate or julienne the carrot. Set the vegetables aside in separate bowls.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a creamy spread.

Step 3

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.

Step 4

To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla flat and spread 2 tablespoons of hummus over the surface.

Step 5

Place ½ cup of cooked brown rice in the center of the tortilla, spreading it out slightly while leaving room at the edges for folding.

Step 6

Arrange a small handful of baby spinach leaves over the rice. Add a few strips of red bell pepper, cucumber, and carrot on top.

Step 7

Spread about 1 tablespoon of the mashed avocado mixture over the vegetables.

Step 8

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly from the bottom to form a wrap. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.

Step 9

Slice the wraps in half crosswise, if desired, and serve immediately. Alternatively, wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper to take on the go.
