These can be assembled very quickly with ingredients from the deli-and for a fraction of the cost of ready-made. They are also portable for a brown bag lunch! Ingredients:
1 sweet red peppers or 1 yellow pepper |
1/2 large english cucumber |
1 large carrot |
4 tortillas (10 ) |
1 cup hummus |
1 cup tabbouleh |
1 cup grated cheese (cheddar, monterey jack or mozarella) |
2 cups shredded romaine lettuce |
Directions:
1. Seed and very thinly slice pepper.
2. Grate cucumber and, using your hands, squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
3. Grate carrot.
4. Lay tortillas flat on a counter.
5. Thinly spread with hummus, leaving a 1/2-inch border around edges.
6. Place pepper slices in a line across bottom of tortillas, leaving a 1-inch border at bottom.
7. Spoon tabbouleh salad alongside peppers, then place carrots, cucumber, cheese and lettuce so they form stripes across tortilla leaving a 1-inch border at sides and a 3-inch border at top.
8. Roll up tortillas tightly, jelly-roll style.
9. If serving right away, slice in half diagonally.
10. Or, lay each roll on a piece of waxed paper, about 12 inches long.
11. Roll up and twist ends party-cracker style.
12. Refrigerate for up to 1 day.
