1. In a medium saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a rolling boil. Stir in couscous, cover immediately, and remove from heat completely. Let stand for exactly 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork until grains separate.
2. While couscous cools, prep your vegetables—halve tomatoes, dice cucumber, slice onion thin, chop olives and parsley. Pat vegetables dry with paper towels to prevent soggy wraps.
3. In a large bowl, combine the fluffy couscous with all prepped vegetables, parsley, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, then taste and adjust.
4. Lay out whole wheat wraps and divide couscous mixture evenly among them (about 3/4 cup per wrap), spooning it onto the center.
5. Drizzle each wrap with tzatziki sauce, then fold in the sides and roll tightly from bottom to top, keeping filling snug as you go.
6. Serve immediately or wrap individually in foil for perfect portable meals that taste like Mediterranean sunshine.
