Rice Paper Wraps with lentil hummus and couscous

Start by making the lentil hummus: 2 cups of cooked lentils, 1/2 cup tahini, 3 cloves of garlic, lemon juice, 1 tsp of cumin, salt and 1 Tbsp of hot sauce (used Frank's xtra hot). Put everything in the blender until nice and smooth.


 Soak the rice paper in warm water for 2 or 3 minutes:


Put a dry and clean cloth on the board or surface you will use to roll the wraps and put the moist rice paper on it:
Mix the lentil hummus with grated carrots and spread on the rice paper (as seen above).
On top add some couscous (you can make this in 5 minutes, by adding boiling water to the couscous and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Or follow this recipe.

Add some chopped red onions.
Then some cucumber. Then start folding:


EAT!
