Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon lemon juice

4 large whole wheat or spinach wraps

1 cup mixed greens (such as spinach, arugula, or kale)

½ cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Optional toppings: sliced avocado, diced tomatoes, red onion, or feta cheese

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Cauliflower and Chickpeas: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower florets and chickpeas. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until everything is well-coated.

      Roast the Mixture: Spread the cauliflower and chickpea mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.

        Add Lemon Juice: Once roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle the lemon juice over the warm mixture. Toss gently to combine.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat or spinach wraps on a clean surface or cutting board. Spread a generous layer of hummus onto each wrap.

            Add the Filling: Divide the roasted cauliflower and chickpea mixture evenly among the wraps. Top each with a handful of mixed greens and any additional toppings you desire, such as sliced avocado or diced tomatoes.

              Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of each wrap and roll from the bottom up tightly to encase the filling. Secure with a toothpick if necessary, or wrap them in parchment paper for easier handling.

                Serve: Slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately, or wrap them up in foil for a delicious on-the-go meal!
