Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons harissa paste (adjust based on spice preference)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon cumin

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup cucumber, diced

1 cup fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped

4 large whole wheat or spinach wraps

1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt (for a vegan option)

Juice of 1 lemon

Optional: Feta cheese or avocado slices for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas:

    In a large bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, harissa paste, olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the chickpeas are fully coated.

      Roast the Chickpeas:

        Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the seasoned chickpeas evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until crispy and slightly caramelized.

          Make the Yogurt Sauce:

            While the chickpeas are roasting, whisk together the Greek yogurt (or plant-based yogurt) and lemon juice in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

              Prepare the Veggies:

                In a separate bowl, combine the sliced red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and chopped parsley or cilantro. Toss gently to mix.

                  Assemble the Wraps:

                    Once the chickpeas are done roasting, let them cool slightly. On each wrap, spread a generous tablespoon of the yogurt sauce. Layer with the roasted chickpeas and the vegetable mixture, then add feta cheese or avocado slices if using.

                      Roll and Serve:

                        Fold in the sides of the wrap and tightly roll it up from the bottom. Cut in half if desired, and serve immediately with any leftover yogurt sauce for dipping.
