Instructions

Prepare BBQ Chickpeas: In a small pot, combine the cooked chickpeas and 2 tablespoons of barbecue sauce. Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chickpeas are warm and sticky. Then, coat the chickpeas with the remaining 1 tablespoon of barbecue sauce to ensure even flavor.
Warm the Wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat and warm each wrap for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Alternatively, you can microwave wraps for 15 to 30 seconds. This warming step makes the wraps easier to fold and enhances the texture.
Assemble the Wrap: Place a warmed wrap on a plate. Add a generous portion of the BBQ chickpeas, then top with chopped lettuce and finely chopped roma tomatoes. Drizzle 2.5 tablespoons of homemade oil-free ranch dressing evenly over the veggies. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the contents for added zing.
Wrap and Serve: Fold in the sides of the wrap and roll it tightly to enclose the filling. Cut the wrap diagonally in half for easier handling. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, nutritious BBQ Chickpea Wraps with Ranch Dressing.
