When I am in the mood for a savory sandwich, I make a roasted vegetable and hummus grilled lavash wrap. In order to make a healthy sandwich, and get all my greens and veggies, I stuffed my sandwich with a bunch of grilled roasted vegetables and some creamy hummus. To be honest, I selected whatever vegetables in my refrigerator to make roasted vegetable and hummus grilled lavash wrap recipe.
Even though I try to avoid bread, I love sandwiches, but I hate carbs! For that reason, instead of using bread, I buy lavash.
LAVASH BREAD FOR ROASTED VEGETABLE AND HUMMUS GRILLED LAVASH WRAP
Lavash is a soft, thin unleavened flatbread, which is not only low in carbs, but it contains very little fat. Lavash, similar to a tortilla, is a perfect wrap for any sandwich or burrito without the carbs. In fact, you can even use lavash bread for pizzas, or tacos.
Typically, lavash bread is made with flour, water, and salt. Some recipes, though, contain sugar and oil, so make sure you look at the label. The 90 calories per serving, however, for a large piece of lavash, as well as the $2.19 price for 6 pieces, makes it the perfect sandwich wrap.
ROASTED VEGETABLES INSIDE THE ROASTED VEGETABLES AND HUMMUS LAVASH WRAP
Instead of eating roasted vegetables in a bowl, adding them to a sandwich gives them a wonderful crunch. For this particular sandwich, I used a variety of vegetables in my refrigerator.
- Broccoli
- Cauliflower
- Zucchini
- Yellow squash
- Onion
Then, I also used a combination of raw vegetables as well.
- Raw organic spinach
- Diced tomatoes
- Shredded carrots
Also, I chose to use oil-free hummus, but using a bean spread, smashed avocado, or a vegan pesto is a great alternative for a roasted vegetable sandwich.
OTHER OPTIONS FOR ROASTED VEGETABLES AND HUMMUS GRILLED LAVASH WRAP
I chose a combination of raw and roasted vegetables. The spinach I used, for instance, was raw, as were the shredded carrots, and tomatoes. The broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, and yellow squash, and onion were roasted together. But, you could add eggplant, mushrooms, or red bell peppers for example.
HOW TO ROAST THE VEGETABLES FOR ROASTED VEGETABLE AND HUMMUS LAVASH
One of the great aspects of this recipe is it is easy to make, and all the vegetable roast on one pan. First, I suggest, regardless of what vegetables you choose, the vegetables should be cut approximately the same size. When I roast vegetables, I use a silicone baking mat, but parchment paper works just as well.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat
- Chop broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, yellow squash, and onion in similar sizes because you will be roasting them together.
- Toss the chopped vegetables in garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and salt
- Put in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Bite-sized pieces will roast in 30 minutes; the smaller you cut the vegetables, the quicker they will roast, so watch them carefully.
While the roasted vegetables cook, prepare the raw vegetables. Another suggestion is to make sure you lay the spinach and other raw vegetables on the lavash first, so the roasted vegetables do not soak through the bread. Because no one likes a soggy sandwich.
COOKING OPTIONS FOR THE ROASTED VEGETABLE AND HUMMUS LAVASH WRAP
One of my favorite appliances is the Cuisinart, 5-In-One-Panini Grill. Not only does it make a great panini maker, but we take it camping and my daughter survived college with this fabulous multi-cooking device.
Although I use my panini maker to grill my sandwiches, you can also grill in a large skillet without oil or even an outdoor grill.
PANINI MAKER INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the panini maker to medium heat
- Once the lavash wrap is rolled, place two sandwiches side-by-side on the grill
- Close the lid, as the sandwich will cook both sides simultaneously
- Cook for 10 minutes, or until the lavash bread is crunchy.
SKILLET INSTRUCTIONS
- Turn the stove on low (I have a gas stove so mine is hotter than an electric stove)
- Using a non-stick skillet, such as a Green Pan, place the rolled sandwiches side-by-side in the skillet.
- Turn the sandwiches every five minutes, as the bread toasts.
- You DO NOT NEED OIL OF ANY KIND
- Continue turning the sandwich over until all sides are cooked.
GRILL INSTRUCTIONS
- Turn the grill on low
- Place the lavash wrap directly on the grill or a grill mat
- Turn the sandwiches every five minutes, as the bread toasts.
- Continue turning the sandwich over until all sides are cooked.
HOW TO MAKE THE ROASTED VEGETABLE AND HUMMUS LAVASH WRAP
