The Balance Wrap
By
I call this the “balance” wrap because it’s so balanced in terms of fibre, protein, and healthy fats! If you can get your hands on some, I highly recommend trying out grain-free raw flax wraps, which are dehydrated at a low heat and made with a ground flax base. They often contain veggies and seasonings like carrot, parsley, garlic, lemon, red pepper, and onion, and they’re packed with fibre, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. You can find them in the cooler or freezer section of some grocery stores. Rest assured, though, this wrap will work with any wrap of your choice—spelt or sprouted grain are two other tasty options. I top the wrap with chunks of roasted sweet or yellow potato, hummus, sliced avocado, garlic powder, sriracha, and salt and pepper. You can also add some greens, like romaine lettuce or microgreens, for a crunch.

Ingredients:
- Roasted sweet or yellow potato chunks*
- 1 grain-free raw flax wrap or wrap of choice
- 2 to 3 tablespoons hummus
- 1/2 medium avocado, pitted and sliced
- Handful chopped Romaine lettuce (optional)
- Sriracha, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Fine sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh lime juice, to taste (optional)
Directions:
- Place a wrap onto a large plate.
- Spread on hummus, and place the avocados fanned out on top along with the romaine lettuce (if using).
- Add a handful of roasted potato, and then garnish everything with Sriracha, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lime juice (if using), to taste. Wrap it up and serve immediately.
* To roast the potato: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the potato chunks with a bit of olive or avocado oil, and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 to 45 minutes until lightly browned, flipping once through roasting.
