Ingredients

  • 1 cup green or brown lentils, rinsed
  • 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 zucchini, cut into 3/4-in cubes
  • 2 red bell pepper, cut into 1-in pieces
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1/2 cup store-bought or homemade hummus
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425 F. Toss 2 cut into 3/4-in cubes zucchini, 2 cut into 1-in pieces red bell pepper, and 1 cut into wedges red onion on a large sheet pan with half the 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Spread in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Roast vegetables for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway, until tender and lightly charred at the edges.

  3. 3

    While the vegetables roast, combine 1 cup rinsed green or brown lentils and 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-22 minutes until lentils are tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and season with remaining salt, pepper, remaining olive oil, and a squeeze of 1 juiced lemon juice.

  4. 4

    Warm 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch) in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side.

  5. 5

    Spread 1/2 cup store-bought or homemade hummus across the center of each tortilla. Top with a handful of 2 cups baby spinach, a scoop of lentils, and a portion of roasted vegetables.

  6. 6

    Scatter 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley over the filling. Squeeze remaining lemon juice over the top.

  7. 7

    Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Slice in half and serve.
