Ingredients

Makes 2 Servings


  • 1 1/2 c (254 g) cooked chickpeas, or 15-oz (425-g) can low-sodium chickpeas, drained
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) tahini
  • 1 clove garlic or 1/8 tsp (0.6 mL) garlic powder
  • to taste ground black pepper
  • 1/2 c (78 g) roasted red pepper
  • 1/4 tsp (1.2 mL) ground cumin
  • 2 whole-grain tortillas
  • 12 sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 c (56 g) sprouts
  • 1/4 tsp (1.2 mL) ground black pepper
  • Hot sauce
  • 1/2 c (60 g) shredded carrot or zucchini

Directions

  1. Prepare low-fat hummus recipe or use a low-fat hummus of your choice. If making your own, drain and rinse chickpeas. Place cooked chickpeas in a food processor or blender with lemon juice, tahini, garlic, and black pepper (for roasted red pepper version, add water-soaked red pepper and cumin). Process until very smooth (about 1-2 minutes). If more liquid is needed, add more lemon juice or water. Garlic, cumin, and black pepper can be adjusted for personal taste preferences.



  2. Spread 1/4 c (68 g) of hummus over half of the tortilla.



  3. About 2 inches in from one of the edges, make a line of 6 sun-dried tomatoes, repeating with 1/2 c (28 g) of sprouts, and topping with the black pepper.



  4. Options: Pour hot sauce over the sprouts. Then shred 1/4 c (30 g) of zucchini and 1/4 c (30 g) of carrot with the large slats of a grater and place them between the sun-dried tomato and sprout layers for a great texture. 



  5. Roll the tortilla to make your wrap. Repeat the above assembly process for the second tortilla. Reserve extra hummus for future use.
