Directions

  1. Preheat a grill to high heat.
  2. While grill is coming to temperature, add lentils, eggplant, za’atar, cumin, olive oil, and garlic to a large mixing bowl. Mash the mixture to a smooth yet textured mix. Cover and keep warm for service.
  3. When the grill is ready, add zucchini, canola oil, oregano, and paprika to a bowl and toss well. Grill on both sides for 7 minutes to soften and mark the zucchini.
  4. To build the wrap, place a warmed tortilla on a cutting board and spread generously with the lentil and eggplant mix. Top with zucchini, sliced tomatoes, caramelized onions, arugula, and feta. Roll and press in a panini press to sear shut.
