Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Roasting your vegetables until they are tender and lightly caramelized intensifies their natural sweetness and adds a smoky depth. Make sure to let the veggies cool slightly before assembling to prevent the wraps from becoming soggy. Chilling the rolled wraps before slicing not only firms them up but also makes slicing into perfect spirals easier.
Varianten und Anpassungen
For a vegan alternative, substitute the feta with plant-based cheese or omit it completely. You can also experiment by adding roasted sweet potatoes for a touch of extra sweetness and texture. Feel free to swap spinach tortillas with tomato or any other flavored wraps to change things up.
