Best Lentil And Roasted Vegetable Wraps Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN LENTIL VEGGIE WRAPS

Steps:

• Cook the lentils: Rinse the lentils through a fine mesh sieve and place them in a medium saucepan. Cover with a couple inches of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn down heat to medium-high and simmer, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 20 minutes. Add more water as needed. Drain and set aside.
• Warm the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes. Add the cooked lentils, salt, pepper, chili flakes, capers, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, and mint. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the sweet potato on one baking sheet and drizzle with 1/2 tbsp of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
• Place the broccoli and red pepper on the other baking sheet and drizzle with 1/2 tbsp of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
• Make the lemon tahini sauce by placing all of the ingredients in an upright blender. Blend until smooth, adding additional water as desired to thin. Transfer to a glass jar or container until ready to serve.
• Finally, make the hummus. Use my Best Classic Hummus recipe, but add 1/2 cup of fresh mint leaves before blending.
• To assemble the wraps, spread some hummus on a tortilla, followed by desired amount of roasted vegetables, tahini sauce, lentils, and a handful of spinach.
