veggie wrap toppings
A great veggie wrap balances creamy, crunchy, and savory components, anchored by a sturdy wrap (like spinach or whole wheat) and a spread like hummus. Key fillings include
leafy greens (spinach, kale), roasted or raw veggies (bell peppers, cucumbers, onions), creamy elements (avocado, feta), and proteins (chickpeas, nuts).

Tips for Success
* Prevent Tear: Use large, flexible tortillas and avoid overfilling.
* Layering: Spread hummus on first, then greens, followed by veggies and cheese, to prevent the tortilla from getting soggy.
* Make Ahead: Keep wraps fresh by storing them in lunchboxes with parchment paper or foil.
* Toast: Toast the assembled wrap in a dry skillet for a crunchy, warm, and secure seal.
