Chickpea Rice Wraps [Recipe]

So these rice wraps are amazing, they are super easy to roll and you can put just about anything in them.  If you haven’t experimented with them before, it’s time you try them out. You can buy them at any grocery store in the chinese section and it’s a great alternative from bread or tortillas.

Today I made them with a chickpea mix and veggies, I just grabbed whatever veggies I had in my fridge that I thought would work well with the chickpeas and caramelized them in a pan.  I like to have some hot and cold items in my wraps but you can do it either way.  These wraps are great to pack for  lunches or to serve as an appetizer, get creative with them and try different recipes out.

*If your not a fan of chickpeas you can sub them for another bean or even chicken or seafood. 

My Chickpea Mix:

  • 1 1/2 Cups Chickpeas
  • 3 Garlic cloves
  • Handful of Kale
  • Half a Yellow pepper
  • Thumb size piece of Ginger
  • 3 Radish
  • 2 Shallots
  • 2 Tbs. Coriander
  • 1.5 Tbs. Cumin
  • 3 Tbs. Chia Seeds

Chickpea rice wrap

Add a little olive oil to a hot pan and saute your shallots, garlic and ginger.

Then add your yellow pepper, radish and chickpeas.  Keep mixing as the ingredients caramelize together.

Pour in your cumin, coriander and chia seeds, mix well then add the kale just before removing from the heat and a little sea salt and pepper if you would like.

With a pie plate pour hot water in it, this is where you will soften your rice wraps. Place the wrap in it and move it around a little within a minute or so it will be soft.

Place the wrap on your board and fill it with a little bit of all your ingredients, you can add the chilli sauce in it too or dip it  later.

Pretty easy..lol that’s it, check out the quick video below showing you how to roll the chickpea rice wraps up.
