Buffalo Chickpea Pinwheel Meal

Ingredients 

  • 14 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed. 

  • 3 10" tortillas, or flat out breads 

  • 1/4 cup buffalo hot sauce I use Franks Red Hot buffalo sauce and you can add more if you like it REALLY hot. 

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt 

  • 3 tbsp cream cheese (room temperate) 

  • 1/4 cup sliced green onion 

  • 1/4 cup diced red pepper 

  • salt & pepper, to taste 

  • 1 whole cucumber, peeled and sliced into medallions 

  • 1 whole red pepper, sliced into sticks 

  • 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced into sticks 

Instructions 

  • In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas with a potato masher to desired texture. I personally like to leave it chunky. I also remove the skins of the chickpeas, but that is a personal preference. 

  • To the bowl, add the buffalo hot sauce, the Greek Yogurt, scallions, and red pepper. Combine all of the ingredients and add in salt and pepper to your taste preferences. 

  • Lay out your tortilla or flat out bread and spread approximately 1 tablespoon (or more if you like!) of cream cheese on the top 1/3 of your bread. 

  • Spoon the chickpea mixture onto the bottom half of our tortilla. Divide the mixture evenly between 3 tortillas. 

  • Starting at the end with the chickpea mixture, roll up to the cream cheese end. 

  • I now like to let these sit in the fridge for an hour. They are MUCH easier to slice and they will bind together much better this way. 

  • Once set in the fridge, slice with a cerated knife in 1 to 1.5 inch pieces
