Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 large roasted red peppers (jarred or homemade)

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1/4 cup tahini

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas

Optional toppings: sliced avocado, feta cheese, or fresh herbs (like parsley or cilantro)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a medium bowl, mash the drained chickpeas using a fork or a potato masher until they are slightly chunky but still have some whole chickpeas for texture.

    Make the Red Pepper Sauce: In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted red peppers, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

      Combine Ingredients: In the bowl with the mashed chickpeas, add the blended red pepper sauce. Mix well until all the chickpeas are evenly coated with the sauce.

        Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface. Begin by placing a handful of fresh spinach leaves in the center of each tortilla. Then, spoon a generous amount of the chickpea and red pepper mixture on top of the spinach.

          Add Optional Toppings: If desired, add sliced avocado, crumbled feta cheese, or fresh herbs on top of the chickpea mixture for extra flavor.

            Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of each tortilla toward the center, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Ensure the wrap is secure.

              Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap them in parchment paper for a portable meal. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Roasted Red Pepper and Chickpea Wraps!
