• 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the chickpeas. In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mash the mixture with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth but still a bit chunky.

Step 2

Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and warm the flatbreads for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until they are soft and pliable.

Step 3

Spread the chickpea mixture evenly over each flatbread.

Step 4

Layer the cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, red onion, feta cheese, kalamata olives, and baby spinach on top of the chickpea mixture.

Step 5

Sprinkle the dried oregano over the top for added Mediterranean flavor.

Step 6

Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables.

Step 7

Fold the flatbreads to enclose the fillings and serve immediately.
