1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional for flavor)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

8-10 large lettuce leaves (butter or romaine lettuce work great)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a large bowl, mash the rinsed chickpeas lightly with a fork or potato masher, leaving some whole for texture.

    Mix Vegetables: Add diced cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped red onion to the bowl with the chickpeas.

      Season the Salad: Sprinkle in the fresh parsley, feta cheese (if using), olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together gently until well combined.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add a bit more lemon juice or salt based on your preference.

          Prepare the Wraps: Carefully rinse and dry the lettuce leaves. These will serve as your wraps.

            Assemble the Wraps: Spoon a generous amount of the chickpea salad mixture onto the center of each lettuce leaf.

              Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the lettuce over the filling and enjoy immediately as fresh, crunchy wraps. You can also serve with extra lemon wedges and a drizzle of olive oil on the side.

                Serve: Enjoy as a light lunch, appetizer, or healthy snack!
