Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust based on your spice preference)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 whole grain tortillas or wraps

1 cup fresh spinach leaves, washed and dried

1 medium ripe avocado, sliced

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup Greek yogurt or a dairy-free alternative

Juice of 1 fresh lime

Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to preheat fully before roasting the chickpeas.

    Prepare the Chickpeas: In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained chickpeas with olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and a generous pinch of salt and black pepper. Toss the chickpeas until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.

      Roast the Chickpeas: Spread the seasoned chickpeas out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy, shaking the pan halfway through cooking for uniform crispiness.

        Prepare the Wraps: While the chickpeas are roasting, lay each tortilla out on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of Greek yogurt over the surface of each tortilla to add creaminess and flavor.

          Add Spinach and Toppings: On top of the yogurt, layer fresh spinach leaves, sliced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion, distributing the ingredients evenly across all tortillas.

            Assemble the Wraps: Once the chickpeas are roasted to perfection, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Scatter the crispy chickpeas over the veggie layers in each wrap.

              Finish with Lime Juice: Drizzle fresh lime juice over the toppings in each wrap for a zesty kick. If you’re using cilantro, sprinkle it on top for an added burst of freshness.

                Roll & Serve: Starting from one edge, carefully roll up each wrap tightly, ensuring all the fillings stay intact. You can slice each wrap in half for easier handling. Serve them immediately for maximum freshness, or wrap them in foil for a flavorful meal on the go!
