# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • This wrap turns random fridge contents into something you would happily pay twelve dollars for at a cafe.
  • Zero cooking means you can assemble it while still half asleep and still feel like a genius.
02 -
  • Overstuffing the tortilla is the number one reason wraps fall apart, so resist the urge and trust that less is more.
  • Warming the tortilla for fifteen seconds in a dry skillet makes it pliable enough to roll without cracking.
03 -
  • Julienned carrots grip the hummus better than grated ones, which tend to slide right out of the wrap.
  • A damp paper towel draped over assembled wraps keeps the tortillas from drying out if you are serving a crowd.
