Delicious Homemade spinach tortilla wrap made fresh spinach, whole wheat flour, oil and salt. With a filling of blackbean humus, caramelized onion, roasted bell pepper, lettuce and carrots. Wholesome on the go meal. 

 If you are looking for a simple and easy healthy filling me try this homemade spinach tortilla warp with black bean hummus.   Easy to put together only need to make spinach tortilla . Homemade version is not only delicious but also without any presevatives like storebought ones. 

 I don’t want to keep it for long so don’t need any preservative.  Then I decided to make spinach tortilla from scratch at home. I didn’t add any sugar in the recipe. Only used whole wheat flour, salt, fresh spinach, baking powder and olive oil; I know that traditional tortilla uses lard to make it. I don’t want to use it, then the choice was to use shortening, I read that butter flavored shortening works really best. I decide to go with olive oil. Since I am using fresh spinach I decide to blanch as blanching helps to clean the spinach and brighten the color. It also helps to stop the enzyme activity that causes it to eventually lose its flavor and crisp texture. Once I blanched spinach I made a puree with them. Then that puree is used to make dough let it sit for 30 minutes.

While the dough is resting I made Black bean Serrano pepper hummus using Bush’s new Hummus made easy product, trust me they are just amazing. Even 6 year old is willing to finish half of the bowl then it should delicious is it. Just mix Bush's Black beans  , Bush's hummus made easy  south west black beans,  Serrano pepper and hummus made easy, they have three products one is roasted red pepper, other one is south west black bean and classic.  You can get it under $2 dollar in your local Wal-Mart. Once you use it you are going to hook it sure.

You can use any filling of your choice I used Caramelize Onions, roasted red bell pepper, julienne carrots then lettuce and black bean hummus.  I added little roasted bell pepper Italian dressing into the lettuce to make it slightly tastier.

Then start making tortilla with this recipe you will get about seven 8 inch spinach tortilla.  Only problem I faced since I didn’t have tortilla maker my tortilla is not exactly round as wanted. Even when I make chapathi/roti  it doesn’t turned out round, still better than my earlier attempt, earlier it was like the continents of the world.

Once you made spinach tortilla  place south west black bean hummus on center, then layer caramelized onions, then roasted red bell pepper, julienne carrots and lettuce. Tightly warp around and completely seal them. Then slice it and enjoy my hubby told only one wrap is enough if you are too hungry you can have 1 ½. I only made filling for 3 tortillas.
