The artichoke hummus wrap recipe was printed in the Vegetarian Times this summer

I think. I changed the recipe by only making the hummus part, putting it into

southwestern tortillas and adding cut up strips of peppers, mushrooms, alfalfa

spouts... whatever and then rolling them up like a burrito. I wrap them in

aluminum foil and keep them int the fridge for yummy lunches... my boss wanted

to know where he could buy them at and all my friends, even non-veggie ones,

loved them. They are a great potluck meal as they transport well and are in

single serve portions. I love them!

Okay. Thanks for giving a starting place to find it. I went to the VT websi=

te

and used their recipe search.

 

Here is is:

Artichoke Hummus WrapsÊ02-jun-02Êp. 23

6 servingsÑLow-Fat

 

Canned chickpeas and artichoke hearts are the quick-fix secrets to this

sandwich spread, which tastes great combined with a crunchy cabbage

slaw. Wraps can serve as a meal in themselves, but a fresh fruit salad is a=

n

appropriate accompaniment.

 

 

Artichoke spread

* 14-oz. can artichoke hearts, drained and halved

* 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed

* 1/3 cup tahini

* 1/3 cup fresh parsley

* 1 medium clove garlic, coarsely chopped

* 1 1/2 to 2 Tbs. fresh lemon juice

 

Wraps

* 1 1/4 cups thinly sliced green cabbage

* 2 medium carrots, shredded (3/4 cup)

* 1/2 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced

* 3 Tbs. plain low-fat yogurt

* 1 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley

* 1 Tbs. finely chopped red onion

* 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice

* 6 (10-inch) flour tortillas

 

1. To make artichoke spread, in food processor or blender combine all

artichoke spread ingredients and 2 tablespoons water. Process until mixture=

 

is almost smooth but retains some texture and is slightly thicker than

hummus. If necessary, add water by teaspoonfuls to thin. Season with salt

and pepper. Refrigerate if not using immediately.

2. In medium bowl, combine cabbage, carrots, pepper, yogurt, parsley, onion=

 

and 2 tsp. lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and mix well.=

 

3. In large skillet, warm each tortilla over medium heat just until soft an=

d

flexible, about 1 minute per side. Spread some artichoke mixture over each =

 

tortilla, leaving 1/2-inch border. Top with cabbage mixture, dividing equal=

ly.

Fold up one or both ends of tortilla over filling, then roll each sandwich =

into

bundle. Serve immediately.
