Description

Hearty chickpeas, bright herbs, and tangy cheese wrapped in soft flatbreads for a cozy fall meal.


Ingredients

  • 2 (15 oz) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small red onion, finely sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives, sliced
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 4 large whole-wheat or plain flatbreads
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt or dairy-free yogurt alternative for drizzling


Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Add the drained chickpeas, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chickpeas are warmed through and a few start to crisp at the edges, about 6–8 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olives, parsley, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to make the salad.
  4. Lightly warm your flatbreads in a dry skillet or microwave for 10 seconds.
  5. Spoon a generous portion of the chickpea mixture down the center of each wrap. Top with the salad, crumbled feta, and a drizzle of yogurt. Fold the sides and roll snugly.
  6. For a crispy exterior, place the filled wraps seam-side down in a hot skillet and press gently for 1–2 minutes per side until golden.

Notes

Use sturdy flatbreads to hold the filling without tearing. Components store separately to maintain freshness.
