Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 large roasted red pepper, peeled and sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens

½ avocado, sliced

4 whole wheat or spinach wraps/tortillas

¼ cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Fresh lemon juice (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a mixing bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chickpeas are thoroughly coated.

    Sauté the Chickpeas: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chickpeas and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are heated through and slightly crispy.

      Warm the Tortillas: In a separate dry skillet, warm the wraps/tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

        Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous layer of hummus on each wrap. Layer the sautéed chickpeas, roasted red pepper slices, fresh spinach, and avocado on top.

          Wrap It Up: Drizzle a little fresh lemon juice over the filling for added brightness (if using). Carefully fold the sides of the wrap over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom to fully enclose everything.

            Serve: Slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately with extra hummus or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
