Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 large whole-wheat tortillas (or gluten-free wraps)
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/4 cup vegan Parmesan or nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 cup vegan Caesar dressing
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional Additions
  • capers
  • cherry tomatoes
  • sliced red onion

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Drain and rinse chickpeas thoroughly to remove excess sodium.
  2. Transfer chickpeas to a bowl and mash about one-third, leaving the rest whole for texture.
  3. Add Dijon mustard, garlic, lemon juice, vegan Caesar dressing, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly coated.
  4. Fold in chopped romaine and vegan Parmesan.
  5. Warm tortillas slightly in a dry skillet for 5–10 seconds per side to improve flexibility.
  6. Place one-quarter of the chickpea Caesar mixture across the center of each tortilla.
  7. Fold bottom edge over filling, tuck in sides, and roll tightly.
  8. Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure not to overdress to prevent soggy tortillas and use large burrito-size wraps for easier rolling. Options to customize include adding capers for flavor depth or using spinach instead of romaine.
