8. Roll the wrap tightly and heat it on a grill pan.

9. Slice in half and enjoy!

Notes

• For this recipe, I use high-quality frozen falafels from Costco. The fresh hummus, coleslaw, and pita bread all come from my local favourite mediterranean shop here in Calgary called Jerusalem Shawarma.

• You can swap pita with a tortilla or lavash if preferred.

• You can also add fresh greens like lettuce for extra crunch.
