3. Add a salt and pepper.
4. To wrap the tortilla, first, fold in two ends over the filling, then fold the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling tightly. Continue to roll up until the whole thing is wrapped.

Notes
Adjust seasoning to suit your taste.
You can fill as many vegetables as you want. However, ensure not to overfill as it will be difficult to wrap the tortilla.
You can substitute tortilla with any flatbread.
Heat tortilla in a microwave or on a pan for few seconds until it is warm. Too much heating turns the tortilla hard which results in breaking while folding.
You can roll each tortilla in a plastic wrap to prevent the tortilla from drying out and keep them in the fridge until you are ready to eat. Plastic wrap also helps to keep the wraps nice and sealed and helps to keep its shape.
