Ingredients
  

For the Vegetables
  • 2 medium zucchini sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch planks
  • 2 red bell pepper stemmed, seeded, quartered
  • 1 large red onion cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
For the Zesty Herb Sauce
  • 1 cup fresh parsley packed, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint packed leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tbsp capers drained
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
For Assembly
  • 4 flatbread or large flour tortillas 8-inch, warmed
  • 4 oz feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 cups mixed greens arugula or baby spinach

Equipment

  • Grill or Grill Pan
  • Food Processor or Blender
  • Tongs

Method
 

Prep and Grill the Vegetables
  1. Toss zucchini, bell pepper, and onion with 2 tablespoons olive oil, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Make sure every piece is lightly coated - this prevents sticking and helps with char.
  2. Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high. Grill vegetables in batches without crowding: zucchini and peppers 3-4 minutes per side until tender with dark grill marks, onions 4-5 minutes per side until softened and charred at edges. Transfer to a cutting board as done.
  3. Once cool enough to handle, chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces. They should be chunky enough to stay put in the wrap. Keep warm or at room temperature.
Make the Zesty Herb Sauce
  1. In a food processor, combine parsley, mint, garlic, lemon juice, capers, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse until finely chopped, then with motor running, drizzle in 1/3 cup olive oil until sauce is loose and spoonable. Taste and adjust lemon or salt - it should be bright and salty.
Assemble the Wraps
  1. Warm flatbread on the grill for 30 seconds per side or in a dry skillet until pliable. Spread 2 tablespoons herb sauce down the center, top with a handful of greens, a generous scoop of grilled vegetables, and a crumbling of feta. Drizzle with more sauce if desired.
  2. Fold bottom edge up, then fold in sides and roll tightly away from you. Slice in half on the diagonal and serve immediately, with extra sauce on the side.

Notes

The herb sauce keeps beautifully for 3 days in the fridge and actually improves as the flavors meld. Make it ahead and use leftovers on grilled chicken or as a dip for pita. If you cannot grill, roast the vegetables at 450F for 20-25 minutes until caramelized at edges. For a vegan version, swap feta for whipped tahini or omit entirely.
