# How To Make It:
01 - In a medium bowl, lightly mash chickpeas with a fork, leaving some chunky texture for improved mouthfeel.
02 - Add parsley, red onion, carrot, cucumber, spinach, salt, and black pepper to the mashed chickpeas. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add cold water while whisking until the dressing reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
04 - Pour the prepared dressing over the chickpea mixture and toss until all components are evenly coated.
05 - Lay wraps on a clean work surface. Place a handful of mixed salad greens down the center of each wrap. Spoon the seasoned chickpea mixture evenly over the greens.
06 - Fold in the sides of each wrap and roll up tightly. Slice diagonally in half if desired for easier handling.
07 - Serve immediately while wraps are still warm, accompanied by lemon wedges on the side.
