I would add a squeeze of lemon over the zucchini. Otherwise, very good, healthy and filling dinner.

Delicious! I have tried it with and without the fresh mint leaves and prefer it without. Also, I use just one teaspoon of pine nuts per wrap. Thank you for another great recipe Ellie. I love your kitchen, your show, and your cookbooks. I have made so many of your recipes. Please come back with new episodes to Food Network or Cooking Channel. You are a nutritionist, Lisa Lillien--Hungry Girl-- is not. I find too many of her recipes use a lot of processed, prepackaged, fat-free foods. Sacrificing nutrients for fat-free is not healthy at all, no matter how many calories you can save like that. I can not believe they cancelled your show and that Lisa Lillien has a show now.

LOVED THIS WRAP!!!! It seems so simple, but gosh darn it's good! I used Dave Lieberman's hummus recipe instead of using store-bought, which I highly recommend. Since pine nuts were awfully pricey, I used sunflower seeds instead. And I added turkey bacon, a little bit of goat chese, and tomatoes. All of that was great, but what makes this dish is the grilled zucchini. This was one of tne of the best Sunday lunches I've ever had!
