Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 oz each), drained and rinsed canned chickpeas
- 2 medium ripe tomatoes
- 3/4 cup packed fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 English cucumber
- 1/4 medium red onion
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 3/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- 2 cups baby spinach
Instructions
- 1Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel so the filling is not watery. Place them in a medium bowl.
- 2Using a fork or potato masher, roughly mash half the chickpeas, leaving the rest whole for texture. This creates a spreadable base that holds the wrap together.
- 3Dice the tomatoes and cucumber into small, even pieces. Finely mince the red onion and garlic. Stack and thinly slice the basil.
- 4Add the diced tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, garlic, and most of the basil to the chickpeas. Crumble in the feta.
- 5In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and black pepper until smooth and pourable.
- 6Pour the yogurt dressing over the chickpea mixture and fold everything together until evenly coated. Taste and adjust salt or lemon if needed. The filling should taste bright and herby.
- 7Warm the tortillas one at a time in a dry skillet over medium heat for 20 to 30 seconds per side until pliable, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave 20 seconds.
- 8Lay each tortilla flat and scatter baby spinach down the center. Spoon a generous portion of the tomato-basil chickpea filling over the greens.
- 9Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up like a burrito, tucking as you go so the filling stays secure.
- 10Slice each wrap in half on a slight diagonal if serving immediately. For meal prep, wrap snugly in parchment or foil and refrigerate up to 3 days; the flavors deepen overnight.
