Protein-packed vegan and gluten-free red lentil and spinach wraps that are soft, nutritious, and perfect for healthy meals or snacks.

  • Total Time: 3 hours 25 minutes to 6 hours 25 minutes
  • Yield: 5 large wraps or 9–10 medium wraps

Ingredients

1 cup dried split red lentils

1 to 1 1/2 cups water or vegetable broth (for soaking and blending)

1 cup fresh spinach

1/2 tsp salt

Optional spices: garlic powder, cumin, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, turmeric, Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Rinse lentils and soak in water or broth for 3–6 hours at room temperature.
  2. Blend soaked lentils and soaking liquid until completely smooth.
  3. Add fresh spinach, salt, and any optional seasonings; blend again until well combined.
  4. Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet over medium to medium-low heat.
  5. Pour about 1/2 cup batter into the pan and spread thin into a circle using the back of a spoon or measuring cup.
  6. Cook until edges lift and bottom is set, about 2–3 minutes, then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes.
  7. Place cooked wraps on a plate and cover with a damp towel to keep soft and pliable.
  8. Repeat until all batter is used.

Notes

  • Add grated vegetables like carrot or zucchini or fresh herbs for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • For a sweet version, omit savory spices and add cinnamon or sweetener.
  • Use a good non-stick pan and spread batter thin to avoid sticking or tearing.
  • Cover cooked wraps with a damp towel to maintain softness.
