This is one of my favorite weeknight dinner recipes. It takes 15 minutes to make, and it’s so healthy and delicious! Between the high-protein chickpeas and the nutrient-rich veggies and avocado, these wraps are a complete meal. I love to buy pita made by a local Michigan bakery, but any kind will do. You can go with traditional pita, whole wheat, gluten-free – whatever your heart desires!
I don’t cook with nutritional yeast often, but I do like to add it to this recipe. It gives the hummus a little more flavor and depth. If you don’t want to add it, just skip it! You’ll end up with a delicious wrap either way. Enjoy!
Buffalo Chickpea Wraps
Enjoy this easy, healthy, and delicious meal. You can easily double or triple the recipe if you’re cooking for a crowd…or if you’re just really hungry (no judgement on that, people).
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas
- 4 pieces of pita bread
- 1 large tomato or about 12 cherry tomatoes
- 4 tbs hummus homemade or storebought

- 1/2 tsp garlic powder

- 1/2 tsp nutritional yeast optional
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Hot sauce Frank’s Red Hot or sauce of your choice
- Lettuce avocado, onion, or whatever you want to garnish with!
Instructions
-
Rinse your chickpease and let the water drain off. Pat with a paper towel to remove as much water as possible, and toss the chickpeas in your hot sauce.
-
Combine hummus, syrup, lemon juice, and spices in a food processor and combine until smooth.
-
Toast your pitas lightly in a skillet with a little olive oil (if you have time)
-
Spread some hummus onto each pita, then add the chickpeas and veggies of your choice…and more hot sauce if you’re like me. Enjoy!
