24g protein, 15g fibre: Mumbai nutritionist shares healthy and crunchy chickpea wrap recipe for a filling meal

Loaded with vibrant flavors and satisfying textures, wraps are an unbeatable choice for a quick, mouthwatering meal. Their tender tortilla shell neatly holds a savory fusion of fresh, crisp fillings, making every bite delicious and convenient. However, traditional store-bought wraps are often loaded with refined flour, heavy dressings, and hidden calories, forcing health-conscious foodies to skip them. Fortunately, top Mumbai nutritionist Vanshika Khurana recently shared a game-changing Instagram video featuring an easy, healthy, and deliciously crunchy homemade chickpea wrap recipe. This nutrient-dense alternative delivers an impressive 24 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber per serving.

Chickpea wrap: Ingredients required

110g boiled chickpeas

80g Skyr (high-protein yogurt)


2 tbsp avocado

1 tbsp chopped onion

½ cucumber ribbons

2 tomato slices

1 tsp peri peri masala

1 tbsp Sriracha sauce

1–2 oil sprays

1 whole-wheat tortilla

Salt & black pepper, to taste

Lettuce

Chickpea wrap: How to make

To prepare the crunchy chickpea wrap at home, first lightly spray a non-stick pan with oil and add half of the boiled chickpeas. Sprinkle one teaspoon of peri peri masala over the chickpeas and roast them for about 5 to 6 minutes, ensuring they become fully coated, fragrant, and delightfully crunchy.

Next, place the remaining boiled chickpeas into a mixing bowl along with Skyr, fresh avocado, and finely chopped onion. Add approximately one tablespoon of Sriracha, a pinch of salt, and freshly cracked black pepper, then mash all the ingredients together until a smooth, creamy chickpea dressing forms.

Afterward, lightly warm a whole-wheat tortilla in a pan to make it pliable. Lay down a bed of crisp lettuce on the tortilla, spread the creamy chickpea mixture evenly over the greens, and layer on fresh cucumber ribbons and sliced tomatoes. Finally, top the wrap with the warm, crunchy peri peri chickpeas before folding or rolling the tortilla tightly to serve.
