Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 cucumber, julienned

1 carrot, grated

1 cup baby spinach leaves

½ cup cream cheese, softened (optional for extra creaminess)

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or dill) for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Spread (Optional): In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with garlic powder, black pepper, and lemon juice until smooth. This will add creaminess and flavor to your pinwheels.

    Spread the Base: Lay out each tortilla on a clean surface. Evenly spread ¼ cup of hummus on each tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges for easy rolling.

      Layer the Veggies: On top of the hummus, arrange the sliced red bell peppers, julienned cucumber, grated carrot, and a handful of baby spinach leaves. Make sure to distribute the vegetables evenly across each tortilla to ensure every bite is packed with flavor.

        Roll it Up: Starting from one edge, carefully roll the tortilla tightly, keeping the filling inside. Continue rolling until the entire tortilla is wrapped up. Repeat this step for the remaining tortillas.

          Slice the Pinwheels: Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice each tortilla into 1-inch thick pinwheels. You should get 8-10 pinwheels from each tortilla.

            Serve: Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter, and garnish with fresh herbs. For a delightful visual, you can also drizzle a little extra hummus on the plate and serve with toothpicks for easy eating.
