Tips & Variations

  • Swap feta with goat cheese or halloumi for a different flavor and texture.
  • Add fresh greens like arugula or spinach for extra crunch and nutrition.
  • This wrap is great served warm or cold, making it ideal for meal prep.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. The yogurt sauce can cause the wrap to become soggy over time, so for best results, store components separately and assemble just before eating. Reheat wraps gently in a microwave or on a warm skillet if you prefer them warm.

FAQs

Can I use canned chickpeas for this recipe?

Yes, canned chickpeas work perfectly and save time. Just drain and rinse them before using.

What can I substitute if I don’t have fresh herbs?

Use dried herbs like parsley or dill, but reduce the quantity since dried herbs are more concentrated. Alternatively, a small pinch of dried herbs mixed into the yogurt can add flavor.
