    Slow-Roasted Tomato & Basil Hummus + Veggie Hummus WrapsSponsored Recipe

    These Slow-Raosted Tomato and Basil Hummus Wraps can be sliced into pinwheels, making them a colorful, kid-friendly lunch. They're great served with a side of Veggie Chips!

    Eat Your Vegetables

    Are there any vegetables that you absolutely will not eat? I have a few that I could do without, and a few that I like prepared some ways but not others, but I can't think of very many that I just won't eat.

    Carrots and tomatoes, I'll eat cooked, but not fresh. I'll eat spinach raw (although I don't enjoy it much), but unless it's mixed in with a lot of other things, I won't eat it cooked. I like peas sometimes, in small amounts, although snow peas can show up on my plate anytime and I'll happily chow down on them. I try to push myself to give all these things another try once in a while (except my dreaded raw tomatoes), but whenever I do, I quickly conclude, "Okay, I just don't like this." And I think that's okay; we don't have to like everything, even healthy foods, as long as we're eating a well-rounded diet.

    Unfortunately, there are some people who don't like any vegetables. And that can be a problem! A lot of kids just aren't big on veggies, so parents try to find ways to sneak them in by throwing butternut squash into mac and cheese or shredded zucchini into muffins. When The Real Deal asked me to create a kid-friendly lunch, I was inspired by their sneaky Veggie Chips to find a way to pack veggies into a sandwich or wrap. And since there are a few veggies that I'm not fond of, I thought that if I could get myself to eat them in this wrap, kids would eat them too. Because when it comes to spinach? I'm kind of like a little kid. So how about Hummus Wraps?

    Slow-Roasted Tomato & Basil Hummus + Veggie Hummus WrapsSlow-Roasted Tomato & Basil Hummus + Veggie Hummus WrapsAbout the Recipe

    I started with Slow-Roasted Tomato and Basil Hummus Wraps. To keep calories and sodium in check, I added a low-sodium vegetable broth to the hummus, instead of a massive amount of olive oil (as some recipes call for) or liquid from the chickpeas (as other recipes instruct you to do). This adds a little boost of flavor too. I spread this on a round whole wheat lavash (although a tortilla would work just as well) and topped it with spinach and rainbow carrots. Like any kid, I'm drawn to bright colors. (I also like Hello Kitty, hence the bento box.)

    Roll your wrap up, slice it, and you have colorful veggie pinwheels! Maybe they're not as sneaky as butternut mac and cheese, but I think they'll please most picky eaters. I mean, I loved them, and raw carrots are pretty much a deal-breaker for me in any meal!

    The Real Deal Veggie ChipsSlow-Roasted Tomato & Basil Hummus + Veggie Hummus WrapsThe Real Deal Veggie Chips

    Serve these up with a side of The Real Deal's tasty baked Veggie Chips and you've got a healthy lunch for even the most stubborn veggie haters. I'm not a big fan of peas, the main ingredient in these chips, but I can't stop eating them. (Especially the very not kid-friendly spicy Sriracha flavor—yes, they make Sriracha-flavored Veggie Chips!) While baby carrots or celery sticks would be the best option, for kids who absolutely won't touch fresh veggies, The Real Deal Veggie Chips are much better than fried potato chips or any snack food ending in -tos or beginning with the word Cheesy. Veggie Chips are natural, gluten-free, and a snack-sized bag contains only 100 calories and 2 grams of fat—an ounce of Veggie Chips has a serving and a half of vegetables too.

    Tomatoes, spinach, carrots and peas, all in one meal. And I loved it!

      I absolutely will not eat tomatoes. I'll eat stuff made of tomatoes but sliced up on a sandwich I will wing it off, scrape off any offending slime/seeds left and then dramatically gripe about being able to still taste its essence. 🙂

      You know I'm dying over the bento box, right? So jealous!

        I'm so glad I'm not the only one. People react as if that's such a weird thing. I'm fine with cooked tomatoes (most of the time), but when they're raw--I don't know, just, ugh. I think it's the slimy middle.

        I knew you would love the bento box!

        Yes, they do kind of taste soapy! I will eat them if they're in something, but parsnips are not something I'd go out and buy myself.

      I hate celery, even though I want to like it. My daughter loves broccoli and peas, but I know so many kids that won't eat any. But I also think it has a lot to do with what they are exposed to at a young age. My daughter has never had fast food, but always had tons of produce so that's just what she knows. I love how colorful these are and kids are just drawn to color.

        I think celery is a pretty comment veggie to dislike. I actually like the flavor of it, but I hate when it's tough and stringy.

      Beets. I wish I could love them, I really do, and I keep trying them when we go to good restaurants. I've even made cold borsht, and it's good, but I can only eat it with a LOT of sour cream. I do love sliced tomatoes fresh from the farmers' market!

      I want some of that hummus, like, right this second. And my daughter would DIE over that Hello Kitty bento box. She used to have a Hello Kitto lunchbox but it got retired when it didn't fit the required (yes, required) lunch container. Could you come pack lunches for me? 🙂

      Wild mushrooms are my tomatoes, especially oyster mushrooms. It's the slimy, rubbery texture that just doesn't go away, no matter how you cook them. Not a huge fan of raw tomatoes either, but cooked, they're a completely different vegetable aren't they?

      I haven't seen the Real Deal chips here in Australia, but we do have other similar products. The sriracha chips sound amazing!

        I can see how the texture of mushrooms could be objectionable to some people! For me, I have more of an issue with crunchy things. Like water chestnuts. *shudder*
