Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 large roasted red peppers (jarred or homemade)

1/4 cup tahini

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps

1 cup spinach or mixed greens

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

1/4 cup diced cucumbers (optional)

Fresh herbs (parsley or cilantro, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpea Mixture:

    - In a food processor, add the drained chickpeas, roasted red peppers, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.

      - Pulse the mixture until it becomes smooth yet slightly chunky for texture. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

        Assemble the Wraps:

          - Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface.

            - Spoon an even amount of the chickpea mixture onto the center of each tortilla.

              - Top with fresh spinach or mixed greens, feta cheese (if using), and diced cucumbers for added crunch.

                Wrap It Up:

                  - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom up to secure the filling.

                    - Ensure the wraps are tightly rolled to prevent any filling from falling out.

                      Toast (Optional but Recommended):

                        - Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

                          - Alternatively, you can use a sandwich press.

                            Serve:

                              - Cut each wrap in half diagonally and garnish with fresh herbs. Serve with additional lemon wedges or a side of your favorite dipping sauce.
