Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For Crispy Chickpea
  • ½ cup canned chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
For The Wrap
  • 1 large tortilla wrap
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped
  • 2 tbsp Caesar dressing
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
  2. Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Roast or air-fry for 5 minutes until lightly crispy.
  3. In a large bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  4. Add the crispy chickpeas to the salad mixture and gently toss to combine.
  5. Warm the tortilla for a few seconds if desired. Place the salad mixture in the center of the tortilla.
  6. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a wrap. Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Pat chickpeas dry before cooking for maximum crispiness.
  • Warm the tortilla before rolling to prevent tearing.
  • For extra protein, add cottage cheese, tofu, or additional chickpeas.
  • Assemble just before eating to keep the lettuce crisp.
