Types of Tortilla Wraps

Can you guess how many different type of tortilla wraps there are? Back in the day, there was just 2 basic categories.

Corn based tortillas
Flour based tortillas

Now, we have everything under the sun to choose from. That is a very good thing as depending on what dietary need you have - there’s a wrap for that!

Gluten-free wraps can be made with almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour and more.
Vegan wraps and most are. Be sure to read the fine print as some can be made with lard.
Low carb wraps or keto wraps – Are you are on a very strict low carb or diabetic diet? You can use lettuce or even an egg wrap, but these cannot be grilled.
Spinach wraps
Beet root wraps

And the list goes on. The calories in this veggie wrap are calculated using a low carb wrap and all the delicious additions and toppings.

The tortilla wraps serve as a transfer device to get all those delicious toppings into your mouth. We’ve had the best luck using flour (also gluten-free) wraps as they are less likely to tear. Corn based tortilla wraps can be used but they don’t roll as easily and have a higher tendency to crack during the roll up process.

How to Make

This is a general overview of how to make a Mediterranean Veggie Wrap. Please see the recipe card below for the detailed recipe.

Slice your favorite vegetables and mushrooms. Prepare the marinade with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Marinate the softer mushrooms and vegetables like zucchini, yellow squash, onion slices and peppers for about 15 minutes. If you decide to cooker harder vegetables like cauliflower, they can be marinated overnight and take much longer to grill.

Prepare and place other antipasto items like your sliced olives, artichokes, hummus, mild pepperoncini’s, fresh spinach, etc. in little bowls to serve. These can be covered and refrigerated overnight if desired.

Equipment

When the weather is nice, enjoy grilling your vegetarian tortilla wraps on either your outdoor barbeque or gas grill.

If Mother Nature is not cooperating, bring the party indoors. Plan B is to roast the veggies in the oven or air fryer. You can use either a grill pan, regular pan, or your air fryer to heat and crisp up the stuffed sandwich wraps.

Recipe Hacks

If you do not have a veggie grilling rack, slice your veggies thin but longer so they do not fall through the grates.
Use burrito or large size tortilla wraps. The smaller ones are just way too small to roll up.
Heat up your tortilla wraps in the microwave for just a few seconds. Warm tortilla wraps are easier to roll up. Keep your wraps covered so that they stay pliable.
Slather on a thin layer of hummus or baba ghanoush before adding vegetables. This helps the vegetables stay in place while you are rolling the wrap up.
Don’t overfill the wrap. I know it is so hard to not do that as you want everything, right? However, trust us. It is not a good idea. You will either have a difficult time rolling the tortilla into a burrito shape or you are going to tear your wrap. Been there - Done that!
Don’t be using toothpicks to keep your wrap sandwich rolled. Instead use a little beaten egg or cornstarch paste to seal the edges.
Keep your meal budget friendly using in season produce or vegetables from your garden.

Vegan Wrap Ideas

It is easy to keep the grilled tortilla wraps vegan. Try these quick and easy recipe hacks.

Substitute egg wash with a cornstarch and water paste to seal the tortilla wrap. Place 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in with 1 tablespoons of water and stir. Use the cornstarch and water paste to seal the tortillas closed so they can be grilled.
Read the label on the wraps package to make sure they do not include lard.
Guests will assemble their own wrap so they can pick and choose what they desire. Even if the rest of your guests like to eat meat and cheese, these additions are optional.

Frequent Asked Questions (FAQ’s)

How to store Mediterranean veggie wraps?

Premade vegetable hummus wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days (if making homemade hummus with raw garlic). If you are using store bought hummus, wraps can be stored for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. Please make sure your wraps are cool before storing them covered in the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can keep all the ingredients refrigerated separately in containers. Then, when you are ready for a quick meal just assemble and heat.

One of the best ways to reheat a premade grilled vegetable wrap is to air fry it at 400 degrees F (204 degrees C) for about 5 to 7 minutes. They are super crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Alternatively, you can use the toaster oven or bake your wraps at 350 degrees F (176 degrees C) for about 10 to 15 minutes or just until warmed through.

You can always start up the grill and reheat for about 3 minutes on low heat on each side or just until warmed through.

Out least favorite way to reheat a veggie wrap is in the microwave as they can get soggy.
