Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas slightly with a fork, leaving some whole for texture.

  5. Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface. Place a handful of mixed greens or lettuce on each tortilla.
  6. Spoon the chickpea salad mixture onto the greens, spreading it evenly.
  7. Add avocado slices if using, and then roll up each tortilla tightly into a wrap.
  8. Cut the wraps in half and serve immediately with fresh-squeezed lemonade for a complete meal.

Helpful Tips

  • If you’re new to making wraps, try warming the tortillas slightly before filling them. This makes them more pliable and easier to roll.
  • Feel free to add other favorite veggies, such as shredded carrots or cherry tomatoes, for extra crunch and color.
  • For a creamier texture, you can add a tablespoon of Greek yogurt to the chickpea mixture.

Storage Instructions

If you have leftovers, store the chickpea salad separately from the tortillas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Assemble fresh wraps as needed.
