How to Make Mediterranean Veggie Wraps

For the Veggie Filling:

Chop veggies: Dice cucumber into bite-sized pieces, quarter tomatoes, and thinly slice onion and bell peppers to create a vibrant, crunchy medley that pops with freshness.

To Assemble:

Warm tortillas: Heat each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium for about 20 seconds per side, until warm, pliable, and lightly toasted.

Mediterranean Veggie Wraps Recipe FAQs

How do I choose the best cucumbers and tomatoes for Mediterranean Veggie Wraps?
Look for firm cucumbers without soft spots and vibrant, shiny cherry tomatoes that feel slightly heavy for their size. Ripe, juicy tomatoes enhance the wrap’s sweetness, while crisp cucumbers add refreshing crunch—both essential for that perfect texture contrast.

What’s the best way to store leftover Mediterranean Veggie Wraps?
I recommend wrapping them tightly in foil or placing them in an airtight container to keep the veggies crisp and the wraps moist. Refrigerate for up to 3 days and enjoy their fresh flavors. Avoid storing at room temperature for more than 2 hours to keep everything safe and tasty.

Can I freeze Mediterranean Veggie Wraps? If so, how?
Absolutely! For best results, wrap each assembled wrap tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag to prevent freezer burn. Freeze for up to 2 months. When ready, thaw overnight in the fridge, then warm gently in a skillet over low heat for 3-5 minutes. This method keeps the wrap’s texture and flavor lively.

What should I do if my veggies make the wrap soggy?
To avoid sogginess, pat your chopped veggies dry with a paper towel before assembling. Also, spread the hummus and yogurt mixture evenly and don’t overfill the wrap. Refreshing lemon juice and olive oil help preserve crispness, so balance those well without over-moistening.

Are Mediterranean Veggie Wraps suitable for people with allergies or pets?
These wraps are dairy-free if you omit the Greek yogurt and stick to hummus, making them suitable for many with dairy sensitivities. However, always check hummus ingredients for sesame (tahini) allergies. And a friendly note: these wraps are crafted for us humans—spicy seasonings and raw veggies aren’t ideal for pets, so keep sharing to yourself!
