# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in 15 minutes flat, which means weeknight dinner stops being a panic moment.
  • The combination of creamy hummus and tangy feta hits that perfect balance between indulgent and genuinely nourishing.
  • You can prep components ahead and let everyone build their own, turning lunch into something interactive and fun.
02 -
  • The order of assembly matters more than you'd expect; hummus first creates a moisture barrier that prevents the bread from absorbing vegetable liquid and falling apart.
  • Slice your vegetables thin and dress them just before filling, because wet vegetables are the enemy of a wrap that holds together for more than five minutes.
  • Don't skip the dressing step, which is where most people go wrong; vegetables without seasoning are just cold salad trapped in bread, and that's not the point here.
03 -
  • Taste your dressing before you add it to the vegetables, and adjust seasoning aggressively because the wrap itself is mild and neutral, which means your dressing does all the heavy lifting.
  • Buy whole wheat tortillas that are slightly thicker than you think you need; they handle moisture better and roll without tearing, making the whole assembly process less stressful and the eating experience much more pleasant.
