Notes

For variations, try adding grilled chicken or chickpeas for extra protein. You can also substitute different vegetables based on what you have on hand, like zucchini or mushrooms.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the hummus. Lastly, for a gluten-free option, use gluten-free pitas or lettuce wraps.
