Ingredients and substitutions

This chickpea wrap is made up of fresh and crisp vegetables and a curry and chutney dressing. These are the ingredients you need:

• Chickpeas - Canned chickpeas are easy and convenient, while still packing the salad with protein.
• Vegetables - I made the salad with red onion and celery, but you can add anything else you like, such as beets, cabbage, carrots, peas, and more.
• Pickled peppers - Feel free to use mild or spicy pickled peppers. The heat from spicy peppers gives the salad an enjoyable sweet and spicy contrast. 
• Apple - Or use fresh mango for a tropical twist.
• Cashews - Optional, but adds a delicious crunch! For nut free, use sunflower seeds or pepitas instead.
• Dried cranberries - Raisins work too.
• Curry salad dressing - Vegan mayonnaise, mango chutney, curry powder, lemon juice, and pickled pepper brine are whisked together to make a creamy curry-infused dressing.

How to make curried chickpea salad wraps

You don’t need any special equipment to make these wraps. The salad is easy to assemble in minutes and can be stuffed into wraps right away or stored in the fridge for later. Here’s how it’s done:

Step 1: Mash the chickpeas. Place the rinsed chickpeas in a bowl and mash them with a fork or potato masher until most (but not all) are broken down.

Step 2: Add the vegetables. Stir the onion, pickled peppers, celery, apple, nuts, cilantro, and cranberries in with the chickpeas.

Step 3: Make the dressing. Whisk the mayo, chutney, curry powder, lemon juice, and brine together in a bowl.

Step 4: Assemble. Pour the dressing over the chickpea salad and stir to combine.

Step 5: Stuff into wraps. Either store the salad away for later or stuff it into tortillas with spinach and carrots. Roll it up and enjoy!

Tips for success

• Don’t mash the chickpeas until they’re completely smooth or else the salad will be mushy.
• To put the chickpea salad together even quicker, pulse the chickpeas and vegetables in a food processor until they’re just combined. This should only take 4 to 5 pulses.
• For oil free chickpea salad, make the dressing with my oil free vegan mayonnaise, hummus, or plain vegan yogurt instead.

Serving suggestions

The salad is best served in wraps or sandwiches with leafy greens, carrots, bell peppers, avocado, or any other vegetables you like. Alternatively, add a scoop on top of a bowl of lightly dressed greens for a boost of protein on your salad.

How long does it last?

Curry chickpea salad is an amazing meal prep option because it lasts for up to 4 or 5 days in the fridge fully assembled. Keep it in an airtight container in the fridge and stuff it into wraps or sandwiches before serving.
