Roasted Veggie Wrap

This roasted veggie wrap is filled with savory roasted vegetables, creamy hummus, fresh greens, and buttery cheese for a delicious and super healthy dinner or lunch recipe! Just toss the vegetables on a baking sheet and bake until roasted, then layer the ingredients on a wrap. It doesn’t get much easier than this hummus wrap!

Why You Will Love Roasted Veggie Wraps

This is one of the easier recipes that I have posted. It’s really easy to make vegan by omitting the cheese, and the vegetables that we use can be swapped for whatever you have in your kitchen!

• They are done in less than 30 minutes

• You can use whatever vegetables that you want, though you may need to adjust cooking times accordingly. For example, if you use butternut squash, you will want to cook it by itself for about 18 minutes prior to adding the rest of the vegetables.

• Feel free to swap cheese or omit it entirely

• Use homemade hummus, or save time by using your favorite brand of hummus!

• The wraps make a wonderful healthy packed-lunch idea!

The Health Benefits Of the Vegetables

This is my favorite part of any recipe: learning about the many health benefits of these powerhouse vegetables! Any vegetable that you choose to use will have health benefits because it is a whole, unprocessed food.

• Broccoli – Broccoli contains glucosinolates, which are being studied for their ability to convert into substances that have the ability to fight cancer. Broccoli is rich in antioxidants and helps to fight inflammation in the body.

• Red Onion – Onions contain a few compounds that have been reported to have a range of health benefits which include potential anticarcinogenic properties, antithrombotic activity, antiasthmatic and antibiotic effects.

• Sweet Potato – Sweet potatoes have very high levels of beta-carotene and vitamin A, which are very important for eye health and may lower your chances of getting macular degeneration. Research shows that sweet potatoes can lower your LDL “bad” cholesterol, which may lower your chances of getting cardiovascular disease.

• Spinach & Arugula – Spinach and arugula are a great source of vitamin K and magnesium, which are both very important for bone health. They also have a good amount of potassium, which is an important nutrient for heart health. Feel free to substitute it for other nutrient-dense salad greens like kale.

• Yellow Squash – Yellow squash and zucchini are loaded with antioxidants, including lutein and zeaxanthin, and both squash and zucchini are a great source of folate, potassium, and vitamin A!

How To Make Roasted Veggie Hummus Wraps

Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card for the full list of ingredients and instructions!

1. Chop the Vegetables Uniformly. The most important one is the sweet potato, as it will need to be cut as evenly as possible to cook at the same rate as the other vegetables. I recommend 1/2 inch thick cubes.

2. Drizzle & Place on Baking Sheet. Place the chopped veggies and garlic in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt/pepper and Italian seasoning, and spread over a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

3. Bake. Bake at 420 degrees F for 20 minutes. Check the sweet potatoes with a fork to make sure they are fork-tender, then take the baking sheet out of the oven.

4. Layer Hummus, Cheese, & Veggies. If you roasted garlic cloves, spread one garlic clove on a tortilla wrap. Spread hummus on the tortilla wrap and top with salad greens. Place cheese slices on top of that, then finish with the roasted vegetables. Wrap it up, and enjoy!

How To Make It Ahead Of Time

If you want to prepare this wrap ahead of time, simply follow all of the steps to roast the vegetables, and then place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

I recommend assembling the wraps the morning of, as assembling them the night before will leave you with a soggy wrap that will probably fall apart. If you are taking the wrap to work, make sure they are kept in a bag with ice packs, or in a refrigerator.

Variations

This recipe can be made a MILLION different ways, so let’s go over a few different directions that you can go in.

• You can add a sauce! It will add calories, but if you want to drizzle a sauce over the top you absolutely can! Popular options are ranch dressing, a vinaigrette recipe, or cashew cheese.

• Add more protein. Hummus has a few grams of protein, but if you would like to add more, feel free to add some tofu, chicken, tempeh, or beans.

• Make it vegan. This can be a really easy vegan veggie wrap recipe. All you have to do is omit the cheese, or add a vegan cheese alternative! And similar to above, if you want to add more plant-based protein, add tofu, tempeh, or beans!

• Change up the seasoning. I keep it REALLY simple and we only add Italian seasoning in this recipe, but you can absolutely add other seasonings like paprika, cumin, taco seasoning, and onion powder.
