Enjoy a nutritious dinner with these air-fried chickpea and artichoke wraps. Quick, easy, and packed with protein and fiber for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
- • canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed: 2 cups
- • canned artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped: 1 cup
- • whole-grain wraps: 4
- • lemon juice: 2 tablespoons
- • olive oil: 1 tablespoon
- • smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • fresh parsley, chopped: 1/4 cup
- • salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • baby spinach: 2 cups
- • roasted red peppers, sliced: 1/2 cup
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpeas, artichoke hearts, lemon juice, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Use a fork or potato masher to lightly smash the mixture until well combined but still chunky.
- 3 Transfer the chickpea and artichoke mixture to the air fryer basket. Air fry for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- 4 Warm the whole-grain wraps in the microwave or on a skillet for about 30 seconds to make them flexible. Lay them flat on a clean surface.
- 5 Place a handful of baby spinach on each wrap, followed by the air-fried chickpea-artichoke mixture. Top with roasted red pepper slices and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
- 6 Fold the wraps tightly, tucking in the sides as you roll them up. Serve immediately.
Serving Suggestions
- • These wraps are a complete meal on their own but pair beautifully with a simple side salad of mixed greens and cherry tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinegar. For a refreshing beverage, consider a chilled herbal iced tea or a sparkling water with a twist of lime. To bring out the earthy flavors, serve the wraps with a side of hummus or a light yogurt dip, perfect for dipping or spreading inside the wrap for an extra creamy texture.
Storage Tips
If you have leftovers, store the chickpea and artichoke mixture separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes before assembling the wraps. Keep the wraps fresh by storing them in a zip-lock bag at room temperature. For best results, assemble the wraps just before eating to prevent sogginess.
