Recipe ANNA Magazine, Photography Jerry Grajewski


Hummus filling and roasted red peppers make this wrap a perfect lunchtime idea.


Ingredients

2 cups chickpea mixture (recipe below)

4 whole wheat flour tortillas

1 red bell pepper, roasted

1 cup baby arugula

½ cup English cucumbers, sliced

½ fennel bulb, cored, thinly sliced

Balsamic vinegar to drizzle

Chickpea mixture

1 can (14-ounce) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 tablespoons water

3 cloves garlic, finely minced

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper



Preparation

To cook chickpeas, place 3 cups dry chickpeas into large stock pot with 6 cups water and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours.

Place chickpeas with all ingredients into food processor and run for up to 5 minutes, the smoother the better.

To assemble wraps, spread 1/2 cup chickpea mixture evenly over each tortilla half. Arrange bell pepper strips, arugula, cucumbers, fennel and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Roll tightly and slice to serve.
