Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz), drained and rinsed canned chickpeas
- 1 medium, peeled and pitted ripe avocado
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 4 large (10-inch) tortilla wraps
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 3 tbsp tahini
- 3 tbsp warm water
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, mash 1 medium ripe avocado with 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth. Add 1 can drained chickpeas, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Mash chickpeas slightly with avocado, leaving some chickpeas whole for texture.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp tahini, 3 tbsp warm water, 1 tsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp apple cider vinegar until creamy and pourable.
- Step 3: Lay 4 large (10-inch) tortilla wraps flat. Spread a thin layer of tahini sauce over each wrap, then add 1/2 cup baby spinach and a quarter of the chickpea-avocado mixture. Roll each wrap tightly, folding in the sides to secure the filling.
- Step 4: Slice wraps in half diagonally and wrap in parchment paper or foil for easy picnic transport.
