Grilled Vegetable and Hummus Wrap

2 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into ¼-inch slices

2 teaspoons olive oil

⅛ teaspoon salt

Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

1 cup store-bought hummus (any variety- I prefer roasted red pepper)

4 pieces whole-wheat wrap bread (about 9 inches in diameter)

¼ cup pine nuts, toasted

1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 ounces baby spinach leaves (2 cups lightly packed)

½ cup red onion thinly sliced into half moons (optional)

¼ cup fresh mint leaves

Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush both sides of the zucchini slices with the oil and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Grill until tender and slightly browned, about 4 minutes per side.

Spread ¼ cup of the hummus over each piece of bread. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of pine nuts on top. Top each with 3 zucchini slices, 2 red pepper pieces, ½ cup spinach, a few sliced onions, and 1 tablespoon mint. Roll each of them up and cut in half on a diagonal.

Serves four.
