1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

6 cups popped popcorn (air-popped or microwave)

1 cup cheddar cheese powder

1/2 cup nutritional yeast (for extra cheesiness)

Instructions
 

Lay the whole wheat tortillas on a clean, flat surface.

    Evenly spread about 1/4 cup of hummus over each tortilla, leaving a little space around the edges.

      Layer on the shredded carrots, sliced bell peppers, cucumbers, and baby spinach on top of the hummus.

        If using, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and add slices of avocado for creaminess.

          Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.

            Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling.

              Once rolled, slice each wrap into bite-sized pieces or halves, depending on your preference.

                Pack the wraps in a snack box and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy them as a healthy and colorful on-the-go snack!
