Ingredients

    1.5 lb (750 g) whole red lentils, cooked

    1.5 lb (750 g) eggplant, flame charred tender, peeled and diced

    2 Tbsp (30 mL) za’atar

    2 tsp (10 mL) cumin

    2 Tbsp (45 mL) extra virgin olive oil

    1 Tbsp (15 mL) garlic, minced

    2 cups (500 mL) zucchini, sliced thinly lengthwise

    2 Tbsp (30 mL) canola oil

    3 Tbsp (45 mL) dried oregano

    2 tsp (10 mL) paprika

    10 each extra-large whole wheat tortilla

    2 cups (500 mL) beefsteak tomatoes, sliced

    2 cups (500 mL) yellow onions, sliced and caramelized

    2 cups (500 mL) baby arugula

    2 ½ cups (625 mL) feta cheese, crumbles


Directions

  1. Preheat a grill to high heat.
  2. While grill is coming to temperature, add lentils, eggplant, za’atar, cumin, olive oil, and garlic to a large mixing bowl. Mash the mixture to a smooth yet textured mix. Cover and keep warm for service.
  3. When the grill is ready, add zucchini, canola oil, oregano, and paprika to a bowl and toss well. Grill on both sides for 7 minutes to soften and mark the zucchini.
  4. To build the wrap, place a warmed tortilla on a cutting board and spread generously with the lentil and eggplant mix. Top with zucchini, sliced tomatoes, caramelized onions, arugula, and feta. Roll and press in a panini press to sear shut.
