    Healthy Hummus Pinwheels

    Whether you need of a fast appetizer, a nutritious afternoon snack, or a fun option for lunch boxes, these healthy hummus pinwheels could be the perfect answer. I love how you can switch up the flavor of hummus for a completely different vibe, and even use different veggies, based on the season or what you have on hand. I’ve included some of our favorite options in the recipe. We originally shared this many years ago, but have added more information to this post!

    Healthy Hummus Pinwheels - a versatile dairy-free appetizer, afternoon snack, or lunch box addition (options: vegan, paleo, gluten-free, allergy-friendly)This simple, but flavorful healthy hummus pinwheels recipe with photo was shared with us by sabra.com.

    Special Diet Notes: Hummus Pinwheels

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, egg-free, optionally gluten-free, nut-free, peanut-free, optionally soy-free, vegan, vegetarian, and optionally food allergy-friendly. Note that some hummus varieties do use soybean oil. Choose the tortillas that work best for your dietary needs.

    For grain-free hummus pinwheels, there actually are grain-free “tortillas” products, such as these coconut wraps. Since they do tend to be smaller, you may need to use 3 or 4 wraps.

    Whole Grain Option: There are whole wheat options in stores, but I also like to make my own spelt tortillas.

      I am embarrassed to have to ask for this additional information, but I must because I am confused about your instructions in steps 2 & 3. It appears that this is not a straight forward situation of spreading your ingredients on a tortilla and rolling it up. Please elaborate on what you mean in steps 2 & 3. Pictures of those steps would be even better!

        You do spread on the hummus, but the other ingredients are bulky, so you don’t really want to spread them out on the tortilla. You gather them to one side and then begin rolling so they are in the middle of your roll.

        I had the same confusion about the veggies, but now I understand. Excited to try it again since mine didn’t stay wrapped good the first few times. Love this recipe.

      We made this with a home-made hummus (it is sesame and soy free!). So delish! Thanks!

        That’s great! Glad you enjoyed it and it is near impossible to find soy and sesame free hummus at the store – so great that you make your own!

      Great recipe. My daughter loved it for her lunch (with avocado). Beautiful presentation. Where can I find the plate – it is gorgeous!
