Total Time40 minutes
Yield4 wraps

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 15 oz can of chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
  • 1/2 c tahini
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp chopped basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Pinch of paprika
  • Pinch of pepper
  • 2 tbsp water (to thin)
  • 4 pieces of flatbread* (warmed)
  • Lettuce
  • Cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • Balsamic vinegar

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the tahini basil dressing. Add the tahini, basil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper to a small bowl. Mix until combined. Add 2 tbsp of water at a time until the dressing is thinned to your liking. Taste the dressing and add more salt or pepper to taste.
  • Toss the chickpeas in 2 tbsp of the dressing, making sure the beans are evenly coated.
  • Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through so the beans brown evenly.
  • Once the veggies are done roasting, remove them from the oven and toss in an additional 2 tbsp of dressing.
  • Meanwhile, warm the flatbread in the oven until they’re soft and pliable.
  • To assemble the wraps, start by drizzling a bit of balsamic vinegar on top of the lettuce and mixing so it's lightly coated.
  • Spread the remaining tahini dressing on the flatbreads and top with the lettuce and tomatoes.
  • Add the tahini basil beans on top and drizzle with any of the remaining dressing. Serve warm and enjoy!
