Chef's Note
For a time-saving tip, roast the chickpeas and prepare the dressing a day ahead. The flavors actually improve overnight! For a crunchier texture, add toasted pine nuts or sunflower seeds. If packing for lunch, keep the salad mixture and wraps separate until ready to eat to prevent sogginess.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Drain and rinse 2 cans of chickpeas, then pat them dry with paper towels.

In a mixing bowl, toss the chickpeas with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.

Spread the seasoned chickpeas on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 10 minutes until slightly crispy but not hard. Remove from oven and let cool.

While the chickpeas are roasting, dice 1 medium English cucumber, halve 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, finely dice 1/2 medium red onion, and roughly chop 1/3 cup of kalamata olives.

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the juice of 1 large lemon, 3 tablespoons of tahini, 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine the roasted chickpeas, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, olives, feta cheese, parsley, and mint. Drizzle with half of the dressing and gently toss to combine.

Warm the 4 large whole wheat lavash or tortillas in the oven for 1-2 minutes or in a dry skillet over medium heat.

To assemble each wrap, place 1/2 cup of baby spinach on each lavash, top with 1/4 of the chickpea salad mixture, and drizzle with additional dressing.

Fold in the sides of the lavash and roll tightly to form a wrap. Cut in half diagonally and serve immediately.
