    Vegan lavash bread wrap recipe on a plate on the table

    I love sandwiches. When I am in the mood for a savory sandwich, I roast my favorite vegetables and wrap them with raw veggies and hummus in a vegan lavash bread wrap. The great thing about this vegan lavash bread sandwich is you can grill it, so it's crispy on the outside, or eat it cold.

    Although I selected whatever vegetables were in my refrigerator, choose any vegetable combination you enjoy. 

    What is Lavash?

    Lavash is a soft, thin unleavened flatbread, which is not only low in carbs but contains very little fat. Lavash, similar to a tortilla, is a perfect wrap for any sandwich or burrito without the carbs. 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. 

    Sandwich Ingredients

    Vegetables cut into equal sizes for roasting on a cutting board

    Instead of eating roasted vegetables for a bowl recipe, adding them to a sandwich gives them a wonderful crunch. For this particular sandwich, I used a variety of vegetables in my refrigerator.  

    • Broccoli: Roasting broccoli creates crispness and a sweet, nutty flavor. The crisp caramelized outside of the broccoli contrasts well with the tender inside of the florets.
    • Mushrooms: Mushrooms have an umami flavor when roasted. They take on the flavor of the other vegetables and taste soft and chewy.
    • Zucchini: Zucchini adds a fresh and crunchy addition to the roasted vegetable combination.
    • Yellow squash: Yellow squash features a mild flavor with nuances of black pepper and nuts. The buttery flavor profile of the squash becomes more evident when it's cooked.
    • Yellow onion: This onion has yellow skin and a strong flavor due to its high sulfur content, which mellows out during cooking, becoming sweet and flavorful. Its ability to hold up to heat makes it great for caramelizing and roasting.
    • Eggplant: When roasted, eggplant has a rich, meaty taste and is versatile. 
    • Red Bell Pepper: Red bell pepper is the sweetest of peppers and tastes fabulous with this combination of vegetables.

    Then, I also used a combination of raw vegetables as well. 

    • Raw organic spinach: Raw spinach add a fresh green crunch to the vegan lavash bread wrap.
    • Diced tomatoes: Tomatoes are nature's perfect blend of sweet and tart. The best-tasting tomatoes often have a true old-fashioned flavor with an excellent balance of sugar and acidity.
    • Shredded carrots: Shredded raw carrots add an additional fresh, sweet crunch.
    • Oil-free hummus: I chose plain flavored oil-free hummus.

    Sandwich Ingredient Substitutions

    • Choose cauliflower instead of broccoli. It also roasts well.
    • Red onions taste sweeter than yellow onions.
    • If you don't have spinach, choose any sturdy green such as kale or collard greens. However, steer clear of lettuce if you plan to grill the sandwich, as it doesn't hold up as well as a sturdy green.
    • If you don't have hummus, try white bean spread, smashed avocado, or a vegan pesto for an alternative spread option.

    How to Roast Vegetables

    One of the great aspects of this recipe is it is easy to make, and all the vegetable roast in one pan together. First, I suggest cutting the vegetables 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 the vegetables 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

    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 for grilling my sandwiches, you can also grill in a large skillet without oil or even an outdoor grill. 

    Panini Maker

    • 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

    Cooking 2 vegan lavash bread wraps in a skillet on the stove
    • 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. 

    Grilling

    • 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. 

    Making the Wrap Sandwich

    Roasted vegetables, hummus and greens on lavash bread on the counter

    Follow the quick and easy steps to make roasted vegetables and hummus lavash wrap. 

    • Lay a piece of lavash wrap on a flat surface
    • Using a knife, spread hummus on the center portion of the lavash bread
    • Add green such as spinach, or baby kale
    • Now, add a generous portion of roasted vegetables. 

    How to Roll the Sandwich

    Unlike a tortilla, roll the bread tightly, holding the ingredients intact as you roll. Then, carefully transfer to a pan, panini maker, or grill, being cautious to avoid any filling spilling out the ends.

    Recipe FAQs

    Is lavash bread healthy?

    Lavash bread has no cholesterol and contains three healthy ingredients: Flax, Oat Bran, and Whole Wheat, which may help protect your heart while losing weight. In addition, each serving of this lavash (half of each large bread) contains 3 grams of fiber and just 4 net carbs!

    What is lavash bread made of?

    Lavash is a simple bread made from flour, water, and salt; In contrast, some versions of lavash are unleavened; most are leavened using an “old dough" method, where a small portion of each batch of dough is set aside to inoculate the next one (essentially a form of sourdough). And it's oil-free!

    What is the difference between lavash and flatbread?

    What's the difference between lavash and flatbread? Flatbread is usually crispy, whereas lavash is softer and can easily be folded. Lavash is also thinner than flatbread and is usually shaped into a circle.

    Tips

    • When cooking with lavash bread, add the ingredients in the center evenly and roll, keeping the ingredients inside the bread.
    • Smear the hummus first, in the center of the bread. It also helps to add a little hummus on each end that acts as glue when grilled.
    • Cut the vegetables you plan to roast the same size so they cook evenly.
    • I buy lavash bread at the grocery store in the bakery section, or Trader Joe's also carries a great oil-free lavash.
    • You can freeze unused lavash bread if you plant o only make a couple of sandwiches. It thaws well and will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
    • Roast vegetables ahead of time for each sandwich preparation.

    Ingredients
      

    • 2 Vegan Lavash Wraps I bought mine at Trader Joes
    • ½ cup broccoli florets
    • ½ cup chopped cauliflower
    • ½ cup yellow onion
    • ½ cup yellow squash
    • ½ cup zucchini
    • 1 cup raw spinach
    • ½ cup diced tomato
    • ½ cup shredded carrots
    • ¼ cup hummus I used plain oil-free, but you can choose your flavor

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
    • Cut chosen vegetables into bite-sized, equal pieces.
    • Toss the chopped vegetables in garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and salt.
    • Place vegetables 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.
    • In the meantime, chopped tomatoes, shred the carrots and cut the spinach into smaller pieces; set aside.
    • Removed vegetables from oven, and allow them to cool enough to touch.
    • Preheat the panini maker, grill or skillet (you do not need oil)
    • Using the lavash on a flat surface, put a thin layer of hummus on the base of the bread through the middle.
    • Add raw vegetables first: Spinach, carrots, and tomatoes (they provide a barrier for the roasted vegetables, so you can roll your lavash without breaking from the moisture in the cooked vegetables.
    • Roll it like a tortilla, but you don't need to tuck in the sides like a burrito.
    • Place on panini maker and grill on medium-low until toasted.
    • Or, you can use a skillet, and cook on medium-low, turning every 5 minutes until browned on both sides.
    • Cut and serve.
    • I served the lavash bread sandwiches with a side salad.

    Notes

    • When purchasing lavash, always check the ingredients, because some companies all oil to lavash bread. 
    • The best lavash is made with water, flour, and salt. 
    • If you add raw vegetables to the lavash before the cooked vegetables, it will prevent it from getting soggy. 
    • If you don't like hummus, try white bean dip as an alternative option. 
    • you can roast any vegetables you have left over in the refrigerator. However, make sure they are cut the same size if you plan to roast them together in one pan. 
    • To add a little spice, add some Sriacha to the hummus before spreading onto the lavash bread.
