# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • No cooking required, which means you can make these while barely awake and still end up with something beautiful on your plate.
  • The crunch of fresh vegetables against the creamy hummus is the kind of contrast that makes you slow down and actually taste what you are eating.
02 -
  • Do not skip the border when spreading hummus or you will have a mess on your hands the moment you start rolling.
  • Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel before adding them because excess moisture is the enemy of a wrap that holds together.
03 -
  • Let the hummus come to room temperature for a few minutes before spreading so it glides on smoothly without tearing the tortilla.
  • A sprinkle of lemon juice over the vegetables right before rolling brightens every single flavor in the wrap.
