Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and black pepper to taste

½ cup BBQ sauce (your favorite variety)

4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup diced tomatoes

½ cup diced red onion

½ cup shredded cheese (optional; substitute with vegan cheese if preferred)

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.

    Season Chickpeas: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the drained and rinsed chickpeas with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Toss the chickpeas gently until they are fully coated in the oil and spices, ensuring an even distribution.

      Roast Chickpeas: Spread the seasoned chickpeas onto the prepared baking sheet in a single even layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time, until the chickpeas are golden brown and exhibit a crunchy texture.

        Glaze with BBQ Sauce: Once the chickpeas are perfectly roasted, take them out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the BBQ sauce over the warm chickpeas and toss gently to ensure each chickpea is well-coated with the sauce.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. Begin by placing a generous handful of shredded lettuce in the center of the tortilla. Layer on the diced tomatoes and red onion, followed by a portion of the BBQ-glazed chickpeas. If desired, sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheese on top for added richness.

            Wrap it Up: To form the wrap, fold the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling and then roll it tightly from the bottom up, securing all ingredients within. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas to create a total of four wraps.

              Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for a beautiful presentation and serve with additional BBQ sauce on the side for dipping. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
