How to make Buffalo Chickpea Wraps (Overview)

Making these wraps is as easy as pie (or maybe even easier!). Start by blending your chickpeas with buffalo sauce; get them coated nicely—no chickpea left behind! Then, heat them on the stove until they’re warm and toasty. Layer everything onto your tortillas and let the flavor party begin! Pro tip: Don’t skip the veggies; they add a nice crunch that balances out the spicy chickpeas!

How to serve Buffalo Chickpea Wraps

These wraps are best served fresh, but here are some fun serving ideas:

  • Pair your wraps with crunchy carrot sticks or celery for that extra crunch.
  • Serve with a side of extra buffalo sauce for dipping—because there’s no such thing as too much flavor.
  • Want stunning colors? Add some avocado slices on the side for a creamy touch and a pop of green.

How to store Buffalo Chickpea Wraps

Leftovers? No problem! These wraps keep well in the fridge for 2-3 days. Just store them in an airtight container. If you want to make them ahead, prep all the components separately, then assemble them fresh when you’re ready to eat. Reheat the chickpeas in a pan or microwave before adding to the wraps.

Tips to make Buffalo Chickpea Wraps

Here are a few insider tricks to elevate your wraps:

  1. Use a mix of sauces: Try swapping out buffalo sauce for a spicy BBQ sauce if you’re feeling adventurous.
