Hello Friends,
We are hosting a wedding shower, at our house, for a dear friend who 6 years prior lost her husband to cancer. She now has an exceptional man in her life. She is deserving; and we are willing. Other people are bringing food; and most of the ladies who will be attending are omnivores [aka meat eaters]. What shall we prepare to share that healthy vegans, like us, would find festive and flavorful? Veggie Hummus Party Wheels!
These roll-up hummus wheels will create “instantly party”! A spicy hummus provides exceptional flavor and the necessary “glue” to make these wheels a fun favorite for friends and family. Dr John
Makes about 21 Wheels up
- 3 13’’ Whole Wheat Tortillas (you may use smaller size tortillas)
- 1 ¾ Cup Dr. John’s Buffalo or Bengal Hummus- or any favorite hummus
- 3 cups of your favorite mixed cut vegetables like (3 or more):
- Spinach- chopped
- Arugula- chopped
- Red Bell Pepper- thin sliced
- Zucchini- toothpick thin shredded
- Onion diced
- Red Cabbage- thin sliced or diced
- Carrot shreds
- Place a tortilla flat on your counter top.
- Smear the tortilla with hummus [it is the glue which hold your veggie wheels together😊]
Note: You might cut the right and left side edges of the tortilla square to facilitate wrapping now or later if you prefer. - Place between ½ to ¾ cup cut vegies evenly across the tortilla
- Carefully roll up the tortilla so that it is reasonably even and tight.
- Use a large kitchen knife slice approximately 1 ½” wheels placing each on a large serving plate or in sealable container.
Serving Options:
Serve these wonderful party wheels with any extra hummus or a home made salad dressing on the side. Pressure cooker Pinto Beans with Mexican spices would pair well with these hummus wheels as well. Dr John
