Homemade Quinoa and Red Lentil Wraps
Recipe by Rocsi, Nutritionist specialising in Menstrual Health
Wraps tend to get overlooked as something genuinely worth making from scratch. These change that. Built on a base of quinoa and red lentils, they hold together beautifully, work just as well with savoury fillings as they do with sweet ones, and bring far more nutritional value to the table than anything you would pick up from a packet. Six grams of fibre and seven grams of protein per wrap, and they take less than half an hour to make.
Quinoa is one of the very few plant foods that provides all nine essential amino acids the body cannot produce on its own. Rich in proteins, fibre, vitamins, and minerals, it offers an extraordinary balance of essential amino acids, making it a genuinely complete source of plant-based protein. Red lentils pull their weight equally well. Their fibre and protein content has been linked to blood sugar regulation, digestive support, and overall gut health, with studies suggesting they can meaningfully reduce postprandial blood glucose response.
Because this batter is blended raw, the quality of your liquid base matters. Using AquaTru-filtered milk or water keeps the flavour clean and ensures nothing interferes with the natural nuttiness of the quinoa and lentils.
