Grilled Eggplant & Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Whole Wheat Wrap
Monday, January 21, 2013From our skinny table to yours...
'I'd have that again' ... a direct quote from the meat-loving hubs! If our meat-eaters are requesting this you know it has to be filling and delicious! Here is a super healthy and delicious vegetarian lunch that we all enjoy! It's super simple as well, simply grill up slices of eggplant, and place on a wrap lined with 1 tsp of our roasted red pepper & cilantro hummus! (See previous post for recipe) If it's a busy week and you don't have time to make your own, feel free to take a little help from the store and buy hummus at your local grocer!
We top the grilled eggplant and hummus with a tomato, garlic and basil salsa! If you want a little spice, adding a little jalapeno to your salsa would give it the perfect kick! Simply roll up in a whole wheat tortilla and you have yourself a healthy and fulfilling lunch! Skip the chips and serve alongside mixed baby greens or grab a handful of veggies to snack on and enjoy this tasty lunch!
Hope you enjoy as much as we do!
