Ingredients
  

Wrap Filling
  • 2 cups dandelion greens washed and chopped
  • 1 cup cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 2 cup hummus plain or roasted garlic
  • 6 small pita breads warmed before serving
Seasonings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for sautéing greens
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 4 teaspoon sea salt adjust to taste
  • 1 4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Serving Tray
  • Freezer

Method
 

  1. Warm pita breads gently until soft and flexible for easier filling and folding later.
  2. Sauté dandelion greens and garlic briefly in olive oil until slightly softened but vibrant.
  3. Spread hummus evenly inside each pita pocket for creamy flavorful texture throughout every bite.
  4. Fill pitas with greens, cucumber, tomatoes, salt, and black pepper before folding carefully.
  5. Serve wraps immediately while pita stays warm and vegetables remain crisp and refreshing together.

Notes

Keep vegetables crisp for refreshing texture or sauté longer for softer wrap filling. Freeze pita bread separately for quick future meals. Assemble wraps shortly before serving to prevent sogginess. Customize flavor with grilled chicken, feta cheese, spicy peppers, or creamy yogurt sauce. Store leftovers refrigerated up to two days.
