Looking for a quick, healthy, and fun lunchbox recipe for your kids? These Mini Veggie Wraps are colorful, nutritious, and easy to prepare. Packed with fresh vegetables, cheese, and hummus (or your favorite spread), these wraps are not only kid-approved but also perfect for busy mornings.

Whether you need a school lunchbox idea, an after-school snack, or even a light dinner, these veggie wraps are a delicious way to sneak more vegetables into your child’s diet.

🥘 Ingredients (Makes 6 mini wraps)

  • 3 whole wheat tortillas (cut in half for mini wraps)
  • ½ cup hummus (or cream cheese / yogurt spread)
  • ½ cup grated carrots
  • ½ cup cucumber slices (thinly sliced or julienned)
  • ½ cup bell peppers (red, yellow, or green, thinly sliced)
  • ½ cup shredded lettuce
  • ¼ cup grated cheese (optional)
  • A pinch of salt & pepper
  • Toothpicks (optional, to hold wraps)

🔪 Instructions

  1. Prepare tortillas

    • Warm the tortillas slightly so they’re soft and easy to roll.

  2. Spread the filling

    • Spread a layer of hummus or cream cheese evenly on each tortilla half.

  3. Add veggies

    • Place carrots, cucumber, bell peppers, and lettuce on top.
    • Sprinkle with cheese if desired.

  4. Roll & secure

    • Roll each tortilla tightly into a mini wrap.
    • Secure with a toothpick if packing in a lunchbox.

  5. Serve or pack

    • Cut into halves or bite-sized pinwheels for kids.
    • Serve fresh or pack into lunchboxes with fruit and snacks.

🌟 Tips for Perfect Mini Veggie Wraps

  • Use colorful veggies to make the wraps visually appealing for kids.
  • Add a protein option like grilled chicken strips, turkey slices, or boiled eggs for a more filling wrap.
  • To prevent sogginess, place lettuce as the first layer before adding wet veggies like cucumbers or tomatoes.
  • Wrap in foil or parchment paper to keep them fresh in lunchboxes.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with fruit slices (apples, grapes, or orange wedges).
  • Add a small snack like nuts or granola bars.
  • Serve as an after-school snack with yogurt dip.
  • Great for picnics and travel meals too.
