“Better than Burritos” HEALTHY Chickpea Hummus Wraps

"Better than Burritos" HEALTHY Chickpea Hummus Wraps "Better than Burritos" HEALTHY Chickpea Hummus Wraps

These healthy chickpea hummus wraps are seriously one of my new obsessions. They’re packed with flavors, made with simple everyday ingredients, and done in about 20 minutes. Serve them next to a handful of chips and a couple of ice-cold beers for the best moment in your day.

To make this recipe, I used canned chickpeas. Also known as garbanzo beans. Just to make things quicker and easier. If you prefer, you can use dried chickpeas. Just soak them overnight in plenty of water and then simmer them the following day for 1 to 2 hours or until they are tender.

To make the hummus, I used a food processor. You can also use a hand blender or even a nutri-bullet. As for the tahini paste, which is what makes hummus…well, hummus. You can substitute it for peanut butter or even almond butter if you can’t find it in your area.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: You can serve these wraps at room temperature or even chilled. The wraps will hold for up to 3 to 4 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
