Rainbow Chard Wrap with a Smoky Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus

These wraps are busting with flavour, they are a great plant-based treat while still providing a good source of protein. Not to mention they are just simply so pretty!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 4 people (making all 3)

Ingredients
  

Wrap

  • 4-6 large rainbow chard leaves
  • 1 orange bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 english cucumber cut into slices
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 1.5 cup sugar pea or radish shoots
  • 2-3 tbsp hummus per wrap

Smoky Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus

  • 15 ounce can good quality chickpeas or ¾ cup dried chickpeas cooked
  • 1/2 tsp. course sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 5 slices sundried tomatoes
  • 1-2 cloves garlic (adjust based on your garlic preference)
  • 2 tbsp tahini paste
  • 1 lemon Juice of one lemon
  • 2 tbsp. avocado oil
  • 1/4 cup filtered water

Instructions
 

  • Add all hummus ingredients into a food processor or high-powered blender and process until smooth and creamy. If you find the hummus is too thick for your preference, add a tablespoon of filtered water at a time and process until you have reached you desired consistency. I prefer this hummus a little thicker in the chard wraps as it holds everything together.
  • Gently rinse your chard leaves and pat dry with a clean towel, lay the chard leave flat so the stem is parallel with your counter (this helps with rolling after) and cut off the stems. Don’t discard your stems! Read my benefits of beet greens post for great tips on how you can use those nutritional stems.  
  • Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the hummus onto the leaf. Add your veggies ending with the shoots last.
  • Firmly begin to roll the chard leave up from the bottom to encase all your veggie goodness inside. Place a toothpick in either end and then cut the chard leave in half. Pack in your lunch kit for later or serve on a plate and enjoy.

Notes

I like to prepare everything ahead of time on Sunday, then store it in separate containers for the week ahead. This way I can take out what I need and whip-up a wrap up in under 2 minutes!
