Instructions
- **This meal is best made in the morning and put in the fridge to marinate and finish cooking at dinner time.
- Take your rinsed and drained chickpeas and smash them with a potato masher or a pastry cutter. You want it to be a rough smash. Set these aside.
- Take a small bowl and combine the marinade ingredients and stir.
- Now pour your marinade onto the smashed chickpeas and stir until mixed well. Cover and stick in the fridge for at least 2 hours, preferably all day.
- Take a small bowl and combine the yogurt ingredients and stir. Cover this and place it in the fridge as well.
- Now make your slaw. Take a medium bowl, combine all slaw ingredients, and stir until well combined. Cover and place in the fridge until ready to serve.
- Once the marinating time is over, take a medium non-stick skillet and place the chickpeas in it on medium heat. Cook this, stirring as needed until the chickpeas brown a bit; this takes around 10-12 minutes.
- Now you are ready to start assembling them. Take a soft wrap and place some chickpea mixture, slaw, cucumbers, tomatoes, and drizzle with the yogurt sauce and serve.
