Can you make these wraps ahead of time?

Store the dressed chickpea salad, the tzatziki sauce and the marinated tofu in separate containers and store in the fridge. Assemble the wrap the day you plan to consume it so that you don’t end up with a soggy wrap.

Can this wrap be made gluten-free?

You can replace the wrap with a gluten-free wrap. If you need some additional inspiration, try wrapping it in a collard leaf like Minimalist Baker demonstrates or simply make this into a grain bowl, by using a gluten-free grain like quinoa as a base and top with the other ingredients to make this a meal.

Instructions

To a bowl combine all of the chickpea salad ingredients along with a nice pinch of salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl and give a good mix to combine. Allow the chickpeas to marinate for at least an hour before using. **To save time chopping, use a food chopper.
If making Tzatziki, grate your other cucumber and then scoop up the shredded cucumber in your hand and gently squeeze the excess liquid out. Place the grated cucumber in a separate bowl along with the remaining tzatziki ingredients. Whisk to combine and adjust salt to taste.
Assemble wrap. Smear your wrap with 2 tablespoons of your desired spread (tzatziki, hummus or avocado), add your greens, top with the chickpea salad and marinated tofu or feta. Roll it up and enjoy.

Notes

Adjust the sharpness of the onion to your taste. Use as much or as little onion as you prefer. If onion is too strong for you, you can cut the sharpness by soaking it in some water for 10 minutes.

Use Persian cucumbers. Smaller cucumbers like Persian cucumbers contain less water, which will help them retain their crunch and also prevent your wrap from getting soggy. If using a different cucumber, scrape out the seeds in the middle to reduce the moisture.

Cut the vegetables into roughly equal sized pieces. This will ensure that you have an even amount of all the ingredients in each bite.
