Meal prep that doesn't taste like punishment. The grilled veggies hold up way better than raw lettuce that gets soggy by day two.

For the Veggies & Wraps

  • 1 small eggplant, sliced
  • 3 tbsp canola oil, divided
  • Sea salt and pepper
  • 1 orange bell pepper, chopped into large chunks
  • 2 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 large tortillas

For the Hummus

  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 1/4 tsp table salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/3 cup water, plus more if needed
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Season the Veggies

Toss eggplant with 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt. Set on a plate.

Do the same with bell peppers and zucchini together, using another tablespoon oil.

Mix oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle over all vegetables.

Grill the Veggies

Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high ~3-4 minutes until properly hot.

Cook eggplant ~3-5 minutes per side until really soft.

Zucchini needs ~2-3 minutes per side for good color. Bell peppers take ~3-4 minutes per side.

Blot with paper towels if they look greasy. Cool completely before assembling – hot veggies make soggy wraps.

Make Quick Hummus

Blend chickpeas, tahini, salt, water, and lemon juice until completely smooth.

Taste and add salt. Too thick? Add water by the tablespoon until spreadable.

Assemble

Spread 4 tablespoons hummus on the lower third of each tortilla.

Layer 3 slices each of zucchini and eggplant, add bell pepper chunks.

Fold bottom edge over filling, tuck sides, roll tight. Keep seam down.

Optional Crispy Finish

Heat a pan with spray, butter, or that last tablespoon oil.

Grill wraps until golden on all sides. Best done right before eating.

Store with seam side down so they don’t unroll. The eggplant needs to be really cooked through or it’ll taste weird. Tahini varies in thickness – adjust water accordingly.
