Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Lay out the whole wheat tortillas and spread 1/4 cup of hummus on each tortilla, leaving a border around the edges.
- Divide the diced cucumber, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, crumbled feta cheese, sliced Kalamata olives, and chopped fresh parsley evenly between the two tortillas, placing the ingredients in the center of each tortilla.

The Mediterranean wrap, also known as the Greek wrap, is a delicious and healthy dish that originated in the Mediterranean region. This flavorful wrap typically consists of grilled chicken or lamb, fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce, and is often topped with tangy tzatziki sauce. The dish has its roots in the traditional cuisine of countries like Greece, Turkey, and Lebanon, where it is a popular street food and restaurant staple. Chefs in these regions take pride in using the freshest ingredients and perfecting the balance of flavors in this iconic dish. Today, the best versions of the Mediterranean wrap can be found in authentic Mediterranean restaurants that prioritize quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods. To make the perfect Mediterranean wrap, it's crucial to get the seasoning of the meat just right and to use a high-quality, homemade tzatziki sauce.
