We love the taste of roasted vegetables and with the added extra flavour of pesto just gives it that extra edge. We have used Lebanese bread for the wraps or you can use your favourite type. The vegetables can be roasted ahead of time and stored in the fridge for use later in the day.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sweet potato – peeled, rinsed, sliced in thin strips
  • 2 red capsicums – washed, deseeded, diced
  • 2 carrots – peeled, rinsed, sliced in thin strips

  • 3 cups pumpkin – peeled, deseeded, rinsed, sliced in thin strips
