Ingredients
  

  • * 2 large whole wheat tortillas 10-12 inches
  • * 1/2 cup classic hummus
  • * 1 medium English cucumber finely diced
  • * 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes sliced into rounds and patted dry
  • * 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • * 1 tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped
  • * 1 pinch cracked black pepper

Method
 

  1. Lay the whole wheat tortillas completely flat on a clean, spacious cutting board. (Tip: If tortillas feel stiff, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds until pliable).
  2. Spoon 1/4 cup of creamy hummus onto the center of each tortilla. Use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly across the surface, leaving a clean 1/2-inch border around the edge.
  3. Scatter the finely diced English cucumber cubes uniformly over the layer of hummus.
  4. Arrange the dry cherry tomato slices evenly across the cucumber layer to ensure balanced distribution.
  5. Evenly dust the vegetable layers with the chopped fresh parsley, cracked black pepper, and smoked paprika.
  6. Starting from the edge closest to you, roll up the tortilla firmly and tightly into a secure log shape.
  7. Wrap the completed logs tightly in plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator for 10 to 20 minutes to firm up.
  8. Remove from the fridge, unwrap, and use a sharp serrated knife to cut the logs into clean, 1-inch thick pinwheel slices. Arrange neatly and serve.

Notes

* To prevent any risk of sogginess, always use low-moisture English cucumbers and make sure to firmly press your tomato slices between paper towels to remove excess juices.
* If preparing this meal a day ahead, store the rolled logs completely whole and wrapped in the refrigerator, then slice them right before you plan to serve them.
* Never freeze this recipe, as the high water content in the fresh vegetables will cause the wraps to become mushy upon thawing.
