Our niece, Julia, and nephew, Miles, love to create her their recipes. So, we thought we’d consult with them for ideas on a healthy snack that uses fruits and vegetables. Some of their brainstorms? Apples and grapes with cinnamon on top, strawberry cheesecake sandwiches, and peanut butter tortilla roll ups.
Using the roll up idea, Alex and I created a savory rollup, using hummus for the base and sliced veggies on the inside. Since the veggie content is fairly light, we’d also recommend cutting up some carrot sticks and cauliflower florets to eat alongside. However, it’s a novel way for kids to get their veggies that’s clean and wholesome. Oh, and you could serve it with cinnamon-dusted fruit slices too!

Hummus and Veggie Roll Ups
A kid-friendly snack, these vegetarian and vegan veggie roll ups are both delicious and healthy. They double as a party appetizer for adults!
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 0 minutes
- Total Time: 10 minutes
- Yield: 8 1x
- Category: Snack
- Method: Raw
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 4 large Dole® carrots
- 1 large head Dole® broccoli
- 1 small head Dole® cauliflower
- 3 green onions
- 8 8-inch whole wheat or multigrain tortillas
- 8 ounces (1 cup) high quality hummus*, purchased or homemade
Instructions
- Peel and shred the carrots, using a julienne peeler or box grater. Slice the tops off of the broccoli and the cauliflower into very small pieces (as shown in the photograph). Thinly slice the green onions.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of hummus onto a tortilla in a thin layer. Sprinkle another thin layer vegetables on top, taking care not to overfill and leaving the very top of the tortilla without vegetables (as shown in the photograph). Starting from the bottom of the circle, tightly roll the tortilla; as you roll to the top, the vegetables will naturally move up and distribute evenly through the rollup. Use a serrated knife to cut the roll into 6 or 8 pieces. If desired, spear with toothpicks. Refrigerate until serving. The rollups last up to 2 days refrigerated, but they taste best day of because the tortillas become softer over time.
Notes
The overall flavor is highly dependent on the brand of hummus; make sure to use a high quality brand that you love.
How long will these last in the fridge?
Good question! The rollups last up to 2 days refrigerated, but they taste best day of because the tortillas become softer over time.
Thanks for this.
I needed some inspiration for lunch. The kids and I loved this. I made a nice thick wrap with broccoli and carrot and it was lovely. Bonus points for the quick and easy recipe.
So glad you enjoyed!
Yumm!!! I’ve been doing this with collard green leaves, but a tortilla would make it a little more filling!
