Instructions
Make the Berbere Chickpea wraps:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a teaspoon oil or 2 tablespoons broth, onion, and a good pinch of salt and cook until the onion is translucent.
- Then add the chickpeas and all of the spices and mix well for half a minute. Then add the water and lime juice and mix in. Cook until the mixture thickens a little bit and the chickpeas are coated with the spices. Switch off the heat and set the chickpeas aside to use later in your wraps. This mixture makes about 2 medium-sized wraps.
- Make the topping by chopping up the onion, tomato, and cilantro and mix well. Add some lime juice, salt, and pepper, and use this mixture to top the wraps. Warm up the tortillas as needed. Add a good helping of the berbere chickpeas and top it with the chopped veggies. You can also add some chopped lettuce and/or cucumber. Fold the wraps as you like and serve.
Make the buffalo cajun chickpea wraps:
- Add all the ingredients under the buffalo cajun wraps to a skillet over medium heat. Mix well. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water and continue to cook until the mixture thickens a little bit. Taste and adjust salt and heat by adding more hot sauce if needed. Use this mixture to make the wraps. Warm up the tortillas as needed.
- Chop up the celery and onions and have ready the vegan ranch. Assemble by adding the buffalo cajun chickpeas to the wraps and top it with some celery, onion, and a good drizzle of the vegan ranch. Optionally, add some chopped parsley on top.
Make the lemon pepper chickpeas:
- Add the chickpeas, lemon juice, maple syrup, lemon zest, garlic, soy sauce, and black pepper to the skillet. You can also add a little bit of cayenne and a pinch of salt if needed.
- Add the cornstarch/water mixture to the skillet. Mix well and let it come to a boil to thicken. Switch off the heat. Taste and adjust the flavor by adding more pepper or salt as needed. Then heat up your tortillas. Slice the cabbage, celery, and red bell pepper.
- Add chopped veggies then a good helping of the chickpeas to the tortillas and top it with more of the veggies, a pinch of salt and pepper, and serve.
Notes
- Recipe time is to make 1 style of wrap. Nutritional information doesn't include toppings, since the amounts you use will vary.
- To make this recipe ahead, you can prepare all the fillings and toppings and keep them separately in the fridge for up to 3 days. To serve heat up the tortillas as needed and add the fillings and toppings and serve them as tacos or wraps.
- Variations : use other beans like white beans or cooked lentils. You can also use tofu that you can crisp up with a little bit of oil.
- You can also use chickpea tofu, seitan, or soy curls. For the soy curls, you need to soak and drain them before using them.
