02 - 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
03 - 2 tablespoons vegan buffalo hot sauce

# How To:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, mash cooked chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until chunky but retaining some texture.
02 - Add vegan mayonnaise, buffalo hot sauce, lemon juice, celery, grated carrot, and red onion to mashed chickpeas. Stir until well combined and season with salt and black pepper.
03 - Lay out tortillas and distribute shredded lettuce, cucumber slices, and avocado evenly across each wrap.

05 - Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly to enclose filling completely.
06 - Slice wraps diagonally in half and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for portability.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They're ready in 15 minutes, which means weeknight dinner stress actually becomes manageable.
  • The spicy-tangy-creamy combination hits differently when you realize how plant-based this really is.
  • You can prep the chickpea salad ahead and assemble wraps whenever hunger strikes.
02 -
  • Don't mash the chickpeas into oblivion—the texture difference between whole and smashed is what makes these wraps interesting instead of boring.
  • Assemble your wraps in the order of lettuce first, then filling, because that lettuce layer is what saves you from a soggy, sad wrap by lunchtime.
03 -
  • Buy the buffalo sauce that's already vegan instead of checking labels for hidden animal products—it saves you mental energy for things that matter.
  • Toast your tortillas lightly in a dry pan before assembling if they feel too thin or fragile; it makes them stronger and gives them a subtle warmth that changes everything.
