I’m not saying this wrap isn’t kid-friendly, some kids may in fact love it, it just isn’t Meghan-friendly. She’ll eat chickpeas in their whole, unmashed state, but mash them up and turn them into a salad, and her texture issues will most-likely come into play.
This wrap was one of the first things I made when Tim and I were doing our 30-Day Vegan Challenge, over a year ago now. At that time I was still learning creative ways to replace meat protein. There are so many delicious ways to do so if you let yourself let go of the meat-has-to-be-in-every-meal mindset. You don’t need super exotic ingredients. It’s especially easy if you have a well-stocked healthy pantry.
I made this wrap, unplanned, at the end of the week, when I really needed to go grocery shopping. I just happened to have all the ingredients on hand. It’s a simple recipe and makes a delicious lunch you could have ordered at a cafe. But you didn’t. You made it yourself.

If you are a hungry girl like me, you will need more than just one wrap to fill you up at lunch time. I either eat two or have a cup of soup and piece of fruit with my wrap. While Meghan isn’t interested in eating chickpea tomato wraps yet, she did want me to give you a message for her.
She’s ready for baseball season! (She’s anti-winter just like her mama)

I love this idea! On my list for dinner this week.
If I gave you $1 for every delicious meal on my table that came from your blog, you’d be rollin in dough in Scrooge McDuck!
🙂 Thanks again!
Maryea says
Haha! You’re so sweet. 🙂 Thank you!
Emily says
Thanks for the recipe! I went to the grocery store yesterday, and picked up the couple things I was missing… then came home and realized that I had used up all my chickpeas last week! I ended up using white beans instead, and it was delicious!
Maryea says
Ooh, I’m going to have to try it with white beans. I love white beans and it sounds like an interesting swap!
Megan @ MegGoesNomNom says
I made these tonight for dinner – very good!! 🙂
Maryea says
I’m so glad you enjoyed them!
Shellyfish says
It must be a vegan thing – I make them all the time, you can play with the spices, the veggies, etc., Guppy loves it on sammies!
Tori says
I am making this for lunch right now! I usually make a vegan “mock tuna salad” with mashed chickpeas so this sounds like a great way to mix it up. Thanks for the recipe!!And I love that Meghan is a Tigers fan 🙂
Stephanie @ Thorns Have Roses says
I can’t believe I forgot my wraps for this week! I’ve gone so long without them not that I just plain forgot! This wrap looks yummy!
Lisa says
PS. That is the cutest picture of Meghan ever! I absolutely love her braids! I agree with her–we’re anti-winter, too.
Maryea says
Thanks, Lisa. 🙂
Shellyfish says
Mashed chickpea salads = 90% of my lunches. I don’t usually put it on a tortilla, but just eat it with a spoon. So yummy and you can do so much with it.
The cuteness! She’s getting so big!
Maryea says
I didn’t realize chickpea salads were so common. My in-laws looked at me like I was crazy when I was making this. 🙂
Carissa says
Meghan is the cutest little girl ever! I love the pigtails! And the wrap looks delicious, of course!
Estela @ Weekly Bite says
This wrap looks like the perfect lunch!
Alex@Spoonful of Sugar Free says
That looks absolutely scrumptious!!! I love the addition of the son dried tomatoes. It looks like a mix between hummus and chicken salad…only vegan, of course 🙂 I will have to make this! (Only I don’t know if any of it will make it into the tortilla…it looks so good! )
Lisa says
Oh my goodness, Maryea, I have a version of this wrap almost every day for lunch. I am addicted to it. It is so yummy! I keep wondering if I’m going to get tired of it, but, so far I haven’t wanted anything else and it’s very filling. I sometimes add sliced red peppers, grated carrot and grated raw beet. I love all the colors and crunch that the raw veggies add to it.
