Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 medium eggplant
• 1 red pepper
• 2-3 zucchinis
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp coriander
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp pepper
• 2 tsp olive oil (optional)
• Lettuce, spinach, or spring mix
• Tomato
• Hummus
• 4 lavash flatbreads (or large whole wheat tortillas)

If you don’t have the above vegetables in your refrigerator use what you have. I like the texture of the eggplant which is soft when roasted along with crunchiness of the zucchini.

If you have trouble finding lavash in your grocery store, you can make this wrap sandwich with whole wheat tortillas.

Tools You’ll Need

• 2 sheet pans
• Parchment paper or aluminum foil
• Cutting board
• Chopping knife

You’ll need 2 sheet pans to roast all of the vegetables.

You’ll also need parchment paper or aluminum foil to line the sheet pans to make it easier for the veggies to release from the pan. Since I use a small amount of oil or no oil at all this step is essential.

I also use aluminum foil to tightly wrap the sandwiches. I like to really stuff my wraps full of veggies which makes it tough to wrap, but using the aluminum foil keeps everything in place.

How to Make Lavash Wraps with Roasted Veggies – Step by Step

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425 F. Cut bottom and top off eggplant. cut in half, and then cut into thin strips. Trim top and bottom of zucchini. Cut in half lengthwise, and the cut into quarters. Thinly slice red pepper. Place the vegetables in a single layer on two sheet pans lined with aluminum foil.

Step 2: Drizzle 1 tsp of olive oil over top each sheet pan covered with vegetables. Sprinkle with cumin, coriander, garlic powder, salt and pepper over top the vegetables. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes at 425 F.

Step 3: While veggies are roasting, spread hummus over top the lavash bread. Cover with lettuce. (I used spring mix, but you can use spinach or any lettuce of your choosing). Thinly slice tomato and place 2-3 slices on each sandwich.

Step 4: Remove roasted vegetables from oven. They should be golden brown.

Place about 3 strips of eggplant. zucchini, and red pepper on each sandwich. Stuff with more or less vegetables depending on how much you like.

Note: Don’t stuff too many veggies in the sandwich as it will be challenging to roll the sandwich up.

Step 5: Place bread on aluminum foil. Fold top and bottom of bread over the veggies, then tightly roll using the aluminum foil to hold everything together. Cut in half, and serve!

What is lavash?

Lavash is a flatbread made with flour, water, and salt. You can use lavash as a thin pizza crust, for wrap sandwiches, or slice and enjoy like pita to dip in hummus. It’s lower in calories than tortillas and sandwich bread. It can be tricky to find authentic lavash bread in large chain grocery stores. I have the best luck finding lavash at specialty grocery stores, or you can order and have it shipped to your door!

Variations

No Lavash-If you can’t find lavash bread in your local grocery store you can use any thin whole wheat tortilla. I recommend getting the large wrap tortillas so that you can really stuff a bunch of veggies in your sandwich.

Different Veggies-Don’t like eggplant? No problem! Use any roasted veggies you like best. I’ve made this sandwich with roasted carrots, and even broccoli!

Change up the spread-A lavash sandwich is perfect with hummus, but if you’d like to try a different spread go for baba ganoush, or even avocado spread.

Top Tips for Making the Perfect Lavash Wrap

• Use large whole wheat lavash or tortillas
• Roast vegetables until golden brown. Toss halfway through cooking time to ensure an even roast.
• Clean out the fridge and use whatever veggies you have on hand.
• Hummus and Baba Ganoush are my favorite spreads with this wrap sandwich.
• Use aluminum foil and/or parchment paper to hold your sandwich together.
• Assemble your sandwiches when you’re ready to eat. They taste best when fresh.

How to Serve and Keep

Serve-Cut in half and serve with sliced veggies like carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes, or sliced peppers. Enjoy for lunch or dinner. Assemble sandwiches when you’re ready to serve to retain freshness.

Keep-Store leftover roasted veggies in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I had a lot of roasted veggies leftover. I enjoyed another sandwich the next day and warmed the vegetables in the microwave before assembling my sandwich.
