How to Make Mediterranean Chickpea Power Wraps

Before You Begin

Preheat and prepare your cookware as needed. Cooking times and results may vary depending on your oven and ingredients. Always handle hot pans carefully and allow cooked vegetables to cool slightly before assembling wraps.

1. Roast the Vegetables

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
• Spread zucchini, peppers, and onions on a baking sheet.
• Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
• Roast for 15–18 minutes, or until the vegetables are lightly caramelized and tender around the edges.
• Set aside and let them cool slightly before adding them to the wraps.

2. Season the Chickpeas

• In a bowl, mix chickpeas with lemon juice, oregano, paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
• Mash lightly with a fork so some chickpeas stay whole and others become creamy for texture balance.

3. Make the Whipped Feta

• Blend feta, Greek yogurt, lemon zest, and olive oil until smooth and creamy.
• Or mash by hand for a chunkier, rustic texture.
• Keep refrigerated until ready to assemble.

4. Mix the Tahini Drizzle

• Whisk tahini, lemon juice, water, and salt until smooth and pourable.
• Adjust water as needed for consistency.

5. Assemble the Wraps

• Lay the wraps flat on a clean surface.
• Spread a layer of whipped feta, keeping it away from the very edges to prevent tearing.
• Add a handful of greens.
• Spoon the seasoned chickpeas in the center.
• Add roasted vegetables and sliced cucumbers.
• Drizzle with tahini sauce.
• Roll tightly and slice in half.
• Serve immediately, or wrap and refrigerate for meal prep.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with a side of lentil soup for a heartier meal
• Add crispy baked falafel bites inside
• Pair with Greek salad
• Roll into pinwheels for parties

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

For best results:

• Store wraps tightly wrapped in parchment or foil
• Keep for up to 3 days
• Keep the tahini drizzle separate if you love extra crispness
• Roasted veggies can be prepped up to 4 days in advance

Variations

1. Crispy Falafel Wrap Version

Swap chickpeas for 3–4 small baked falafel bites.

2. High-Protein Chicken Version

Add sliced grilled Mediterranean chicken breast on top of the chickpeas.

3. Hummus-Free Version

Replace feta spread with roasted red pepper yogurt dip.

4. Vegan Version

Use dairy-free feta and plant-based yogurt.

5. Crunchy Wrap Version

Add crispy chickpeas or toasted pine nuts for extra crunch.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Using watery veggies → pat them dry after roasting
• Overfilling → wrap won’t roll tightly
• Adding sauces near the edges → causes tearing
• Using thin wraps → break easily under filling

FAQ — High-Protein Mediterranean Chickpea Power Wraps

Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
Yes. These wraps hold up well for 2–3 days in the refrigerator. For the best texture, store the whipped feta, chickpeas, and roasted vegetables separately and assemble the wraps the day you plan to eat them. If you prefer to pre-assemble, wrap them tightly in parchment and keep the tahini drizzle on the side.

How do I keep the wraps from getting soggy?
The two biggest tricks are drying your roasted vegetables and keeping moisture-heavy ingredients in the center of the wrap. Avoid placing cucumbers or roasted peppers near the edges. A base layer of whipped feta also acts as a moisture barrier.

Can I make these wraps vegan?
Absolutely. Replace the whipped feta with hummus or dairy-free yogurt, and choose plant-based feta for topping. Everything else in the recipe is naturally vegan-friendly.

What wraps are best for this recipe?
Whole wheat, spinach, and high-protein wraps hold up beautifully. Avoid very thin tortillas—they tend to tear once the filling is added. Lavash bread also works well and rolls tightly.

Do I have to roast the vegetables?
Roasting gives more flavor and prevents watery textures, but you can use raw vegetables if you’re in a rush. Just pat them dry and slice them thinly for easier rolling.

Can I add meat to make these wraps higher in protein?
Yes. Grilled Mediterranean chicken breast or leftover lemon herb chicken is excellent here. Many readers also love adding a few slices of roasted turkey for a lighter option.

Can I freeze the wraps?
These wraps are best enjoyed fresh or stored in the fridge. Freezing is not recommended, as the vegetables and dairy-based spread will release water when thawed.

What can I use instead of chickpeas?
Cooked quinoa, white beans, or lentils work as great high-protein alternatives. If you prefer a bit of crunch, add crispy roasted chickpeas or toasted pine nuts.
