Ingredients
  • 6-8 pieces Pre-made falafel
  • 1 Whole wheat pita bread
  • 2 tablespoons Hummus
  • 1 tablespoon Tzatziki sauce
  • 1/2 cup Shredded lettuce
  • 1/4 cup Diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup Cucumber
  • 1 tablespoon Red onion

Heating the Falafel

Begin by heating the pre-made falafel according to package instructions. This can be done in a microwave, oven, or frying pan. Frying will give the falafel a crispier texture.

Warming the Pita

While the falafel is heating, warm the pita bread. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Warming the pita makes it more pliable.

Assembling the Wrap

Spread hummus evenly over the warm pita bread. Add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and red onion (if using). Place the heated falafel on top of the vegetables. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce.

Wrapping it Up

Carefully fold the sides of the pita bread inwards, then roll the wrap tightly from the bottom up. If desired, you can secure the wrap with a toothpick or by wrapping it in parchment paper.

Enjoy!

Serve immediately and enjoy your quick and delicious falafel wrap!
