Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, rinsed and drained

2 medium roasted red peppers (jarred or homemade)

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 avocado, sliced

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

1/4 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt of choice

2 tablespoons tahini

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large whole wheat or spinach wraps

Fresh herbs (like parsley or cilantro) for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dressing: In a small mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, tahini, fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary, then set aside.

    Mash the Chickpeas: In a separate mixing bowl, use a fork or a potato masher to roughly mash the rinsed chickpeas. Aim to create a mixture that has some whole chickpeas for added texture while being mostly mashed.

      Incorporate the Peppers: Chop the roasted red peppers into small, bite-sized pieces. Gently fold the chopped peppers into the mashed chickpeas until they are well mixed.

        Layer the Wraps: Take one wrap and lay it flat on a clean surface or plate. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the tahini-yogurt dressing evenly across the center of the wrap.

          Add the Filling: On top of the dressing, add a handful of fresh spinach leaves. Then, use a generous scoop of the chickpea and roasted pepper mixture. Top this off with slices of avocado and crumbled feta cheese, if desired. Sprinkle with fresh herbs for added flavor.

            Wrap It Up: Carefully fold the sides of the wrap inward, then begin rolling from the bottom up, tucking the filling in as you roll until the wrap is fully enclosed.

              Serve: Slice the wraps in half diagonally for a visually appealing presentation. Serve immediately, accompanied by extra dressing on the side for dipping, if you like.
