Veggie Packed Tortilla Roll-Up
Ingredients:
Super Easy Hummus
Tortilla Roll-Ups
Directions:
For hummus
Place the chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine.
Add the olive oil and continue to pulse until smooth and creamy.
*Pro Tip—Tahini is a sesame seed paste that can be found at your local grocery, usually near the peanut butter or in the kosher aisle.
For roll-ups
Spread 2 tablespoons of hummus on each tortilla, taking care to cover the edges, since the hummus will act as a glue to hold the wrap together.
Sprinkle ¼ cup of the grated carrots along the closest edge of each tortilla, and lay ¼ of the avocado slices on top of the carrots.
Roll up, slice in half diagonally and serve.
