This Chickpea Smash Veggie wrap is part of our Clean Eating program and I made this up after teaching a fitness class with ingredients on hand.  It was delicious I had to share it with you.  This is a great way to get more plant based food in your diet.

How to Make:

  2. Add chickpeas, cucumber, onion, arugula / lettuce, lemon to a food processor until you get your desired consistency *keep it a bit chunky
  3. Lay out your wrap, add lettuce, spoon mixture on top and enjoy
  4. Optional: top 1/4 based avocado or guacamole *see recipe

Trina’s Tidbits:

If you are watching your carb intake, instead of the wrap use romaine, Boston lettuce or any lettuce that wraps well. This tastes so light and is filling with plant based protein.

I make this without oil.  If you want a fuller flavour, use cold pressed extra virgin olive oil if possible. This can also be made as a salad.
