Crunchy Vegetable Wraps with Butternut Squash Hummus

We’ve had a few glimpses of warmer spring-like temps recently which has us craving all the bright, fresh, and crunchy produce. Whether used in salads, on sandwiches, or as snacks, there’s a huge variety of fresh produce in this week’s box that can be enjoyed raw.

Every week we provide you with a recipe in hopes that we'll inspire you to get creative using the contents of your delivery of our Perfectly Imperfect fresh fruits and veggies.
