# How-To:

01 - Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus evenly over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border.
02 - Arrange the sliced bell peppers, carrot, cucumber, purple cabbage, and spinach in horizontal rows across the center of the tortilla to create a rainbow effect.
03 - Sprinkle with chopped herbs, avocado slices, and feta cheese if using.
04 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.
05 - Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings.
06 - Slice each wrap in half diagonally. Wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil for easy transport.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You get to eat the rainbow without any guilt, just crisp vegetables that actually taste like themselves.
  • It takes barely fifteen minutes but looks like you spent your whole morning prepping—perfect for impressing people or just yourself.
  • Every bite feels different because the vegetables are arranged in distinct layers, so you get a little surprise with each fold.
02 -
  • Wet vegetables will make your wrap soggy by lunchtime, so pat everything dry with paper towels after slicing—it takes two extra minutes and changes everything.
  • If your tortillas are on the stiff side straight from the package, wrap them in a damp towel for thirty seconds to give them flexibility; this prevents cracking when you roll them.
  • Assemble these no more than a few hours before eating, or the tortilla will absorb moisture and lose its integrity, though the parchment wrapping helps significantly.
03 -
  • Slice all your vegetables the night before and store them in separate containers with paper towels to absorb excess moisture—assembly becomes almost meditative the next day.
  • If you're making these for a crowd, set up a little assembly line with each ingredient laid out in order; it's faster and somehow more fun than doing them one by one.
