Quick Wholemeal Tortilla with Black Forest Ham, Mozzarella & Homemade Houmous
This tortilla is quick and healthy. I make it with Black Forest ham, homemade hummus, and mozzarella for a filling wrap. Rocket and tomatoes add colour and crunch. I usually serve it with cucumber on the side to keep things light. It’s great for lunch at home or to take with you.

Method
Why I Like this Recipe
I enjoy this tortilla because it’s simple and quick. The hummus, ham, and fresh vegetables taste great together. It’s filling but still light, so it’s perfect when I want something healthy without much effort.
Tips and Variations
- Try swapping mozzarella for light cheddar or feta if you want a different flavour.
- For a vegetarian version, use roasted peppers or grilled courgettes instead of ham.
- Add a few avocado slices to make it extra creamy and boost healthy fats.
- Drizzle some balsamic glaze on top for a Mediterranean touch.
- Sometimes I toast the tortilla in a dry pan for a minute or two to make it a bit crispy.
- Add some chilli flakes or smoked paprika to the hummus for a spicy kick.
- Serve it with cucumber sticks, carrot batons, or a fresh salad on the side.
- You can make this ahead for an easy grab-and-go lunch. It stays fresh for several hours.
Meal Storage
Keep the wrap in the fridge in a container for up to a day. If you’re making it ahead, store the hummus separately and assemble the tortilla just before eating.
