Ingredients Needed
- 1 cup cooked millet
- 2 large carrots, grated
- 1/2 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Preparation Steps
Start by preparing the millet according to package instructions. Allow it to cool slightly before using. While the millet cools, grate the carrots and set aside. If desired, chop fresh herbs for added flavor.
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of hummus over the center of the wrap. Add a portion of cooked millet on top of the hummus, followed by grated carrots and herbs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from one end to the other to form a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
