Ingredients
  

For the Chickpea Salad:

  • 1 15 oz can chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 medium avocado or 2 small
  • 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise or regular mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1/2 red onion diced
  • 1 small jalapeño diced (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Hot sauce to taste optional

For the Wraps:

  • 4 large tortillas flour or whole wheat
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • Optional: sliced cucumbers bell peppers, or other vegetables for added crunch

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpea Salad:

  • In a mixing bowl, add the drained and rinsed chickpeas. Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the chickpeas until they are mostly broken down but still have some texture. You want a chunky consistency rather than a puree.

Mix in Other Ingredients:

  • Add the diced avocado to the bowl with the mashed chickpeas. Then, mix in the vegan mayonnaise, yellow mustard, diced red onion, and jalapeño if using. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.

Assemble the Wraps:

  • Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface. On each tortilla, place a handful of fresh spinach leaves in the center. Spoon a generous amount of the chickpea salad mixture on top of the spinach.

Wrap It Up:

  • To wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla toward the center and then roll from the bottom up tightly like a burrito. Ensure that all fillings are secured inside as you roll.

Serve or Store:

  • Serve immediately or wrap them in foil or parchment paper for later consumption. These wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours if wrapped tightly.

Customization Options:

  • Feel free to customize your wraps by adding other vegetables such as sliced cucumbers, bell peppers, or shredded carrots for extra crunch and flavor.
  • These Chickpea Salad Wraps are not only quick to make but also packed with protein and fiber, making them a satisfying meal option! Enjoy your healthy and delicious wraps!
