Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 large roasted red peppers (jarred or homemade)

2 tablespoons tahini

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 garlic clove, minced

1 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps

1 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens

½ cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Sliced cucumbers and tomatoes for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpea Spread: In a blender or food processor, add the drained chickpeas, roasted red peppers, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little water to reach your desired consistency.

    Taste and Adjust: Taste the chickpea spread and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.

      Warm the Tortillas: In a skillet over medium heat, warm the whole wheat tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are soft and pliable.

        Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous amount of the roasted red pepper and chickpea spread on each tortilla. Leave about an inch from the edges to prevent overflow.

          Add Fillings: Layer fresh spinach or mixed greens on top of the spread. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese (if using) and add slices of cucumbers and tomatoes for added crunch and freshness.

            Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll from the bottom up to enclose the fillings securely.

              Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice the wraps in half. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as is!
