Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

1 medium carrot, grated or julienned

½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced

¼ red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

Avocado slices (for topping, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare Chickpea Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the chickpeas slightly, allowing for some whole ones to remain for texture. Mix until well combined and creamy.

    Assemble the Wraps: Lay out a whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Spread a generous portion of the honey mustard chickpea mixture in the center of the wrap.

      Add Veggies: Top the chickpea mixture with a handful of fresh spinach, followed by slices of cucumber, grated carrot, red bell pepper, and red onion (if using). You can also add avocado slices for an extra creamy texture.

        Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then starting from the bottom, roll the wrap tightly upwards until fully enclosed. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

          Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally for a beautiful presentation. Serve immediately, or wrap in foil for a portable lunch option. You can also serve with extra honey mustard dressing on the side for dipping if desired.
