What is Freekeh?
Freekeh is an ancient grain made from green wheat that is harvested while still young. It has a smoky flavor and a chewy texture, making it a great addition to salads, soups, and wraps. Rich in fiber, protein, and vitamins, freekeh is a healthy choice for sustained energy throughout the day.
Ingredients for the Wraps
- Whole wheat or spinach tortillas
- Cooked freekeh
- Roasted red peppers
- Hummus (preferably roasted red pepper flavor)
- Fresh vegetables (cucumbers, lettuce, carrots)

How to Prepare the Wraps
Start by spreading a generous layer of roasted red pepper hummus over the tortilla. Then, add a scoop of cooked freekeh for a hearty base. Layer on your choice of fresh vegetables and, if desired, sprinkle with feta cheese or olives for extra flavor. Roll the tortilla tightly to secure the filling.
Wrap each in foil or parchment paper for easy transport. These wraps can be prepared the night before and stored in the refrigerator, making them perfect for busy mornings or quick lunches.
