Ingredients

• 1 cup couscous
• 1 cup vegetable stock
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 yellow onion, finely diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 4 cups baby spinach
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 large whole wheat wraps
• 0.5 cup hummus (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable stock to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in the couscous, cover, and let it sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic, curry powder, ground cumin, and paprika. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the chickpeas to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside the chickpea mixture in a separate bowl.

Step 5

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Combine the cooked couscous, chickpea mixture, spinach, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Stir until well mixed.

Step 7

Warm the whole wheat wraps in a dry skillet or microwave for easier rolling.

Step 8

Spread a thin layer of hummus (if using) on each wrap. Spoon the curried couscous, spinach, and chickpea mixture onto the center of each wrap.

Step 9

Fold the sides of the wrap inward, then roll tightly from the bottom up to form a burrito-style wrap.

Step 10

Cut each wrap in half if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy!
