Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup baby spinach, finely chopped

1/2 cup bell peppers, julienned (any color)

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1 tablespoon olive oil for sautéing

Instructions
 

Prepare the Veggies: If you prefer your vegetables warm, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the julienned bell peppers and thinly sliced red onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the veggies are softened. Season them with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.

    Assemble the Wraps: Place a whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. Use a knife or spatula to spread a generous layer of hummus evenly across the tortilla, ensuring to leave a small border around the edges for easy rolling.

      Layer the Fillings: Start layering your fillings by evenly distributing the finely chopped baby spinach over the hummus. Follow this with the sautéed bell peppers and onion mixture. Next, add the shredded carrots and top it all off with the shredded mozzarella cheese for that melty goodness.

        Roll It Up: Begin rolling the tortilla from one edge, taking care to keep the fillings tucked in as you go. Roll tightly but gently, and tuck in the sides of the tortilla to secure everything inside. This helps to prevent any fillings from escaping.

          Slice and Serve: Once the tortilla is fully rolled, use a sharp knife to slice each wrap in half or into bite-sized pinwheels. This makes them perfect for snacking or sharing.

            Pack for School: To keep your wraps fresh until lunchtime, wrap each piece individually in foil or parchment paper. This also makes them easy to grab and go!
