Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cucumber, diced

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), diced

1/4 red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup kalamata olives, sliced

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (or fresh lemon juice)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps

Optional: Hummus for spreading

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or a potato masher to gently mash half of the chickpeas, creating a creamy base while leaving the other half whole for added texture and crunch.

    Mix the Veggies: Add the halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, diced bell pepper, finely chopped red onion, sliced kalamata olives, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped parsley to the mashed chickpeas. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to combine these fresh ingredients carefully.

      Dress the Salad: Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and your choice of red wine vinegar or lemon juice over the salad mixture. Sprinkle the dried oregano, and season generously with salt and freshly cracked pepper. Toss everything gently yet thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

        Warm the Tortillas: For a softer wrap, lightly warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for approximately 30 seconds on each side, or until they become pliable and warm to touch.

          Assemble the Wraps: Spread a thin layer of hummus (if using) on each tortilla for an added creamy texture. Evenly distribute the vibrant chickpea salad mixture among all tortillas, placing it in the center.

            Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortillas inward, then roll them up tightly from the bottom to the top to create neat wraps. Use toothpicks to secure them if necessary, ensuring the filling stays inside.

              Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately. For a delightful touch, offer extra kalamata olives or a small bowl of hummus on the side for dipping. Enjoy this refreshing and wholesome meal!
