  2. Step 2: Add 1 small diced cucumber, 10 halved cherry tomatoes, 1/2 diced red bell pepper, and 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley to the chickpeas. Stir gently to combine.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp tahini, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp water, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until smooth and pourable.
  4. Step 4: Pour the tahini dressing over the chickpea mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Step 5: Lay out 4 whole wheat tortillas and evenly distribute the chickpea salad onto the center of each tortilla.
