Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup hot sauce (like Frank's RedHot)

1 tablespoon maple syrup

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat or spinach wraps

1 cup shredded lettuce

1/2 cup diced tomatoes

1/2 cup cucumbers, diced

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese or dairy-free alternative (optional)

1/4 cup ranch dressing or vegan ranch dressing

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a medium bowl, mash the chickpeas slightly with a fork, leaving some whole for texture.

    Season the Chickpeas: Add olive oil, hot sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the chickpeas are well coated with the sauce.

      Cook the Chickpeas: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpea mixture and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until heated through and slightly crispy.

        Warm the Wraps: While the chickpeas are cooking, warm the wraps in another pan for a minute on each side or microwave for about 10-15 seconds until pliable.

          Assemble the Wraps: Layer each wrap with a handful of shredded lettuce, a portion of the chickpea mixture, diced tomatoes, cucumbers, and crumbled feta cheese (if using).

            Dress It Up: Drizzle ranch dressing over the fillings or spread it along the center of each wrap.

              Roll the Wraps: Fold the sides in and then roll from the bottom up to form a wrap while keeping the filling secure.

                Slice and Serve: Cut each wrap in half, serve immediately, and enjoy the spicy, tangy flavors!
