Ingredients

  • 2 x 400g cans chickpeas.
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil.
  • 2 large carrots, diced.
  • 4 stalks celery, diced.
  • 1 large red capsicum, cored and diced.
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced.
  • 2 teaspoons cumin, ground.
  • 2 teaspoons smoky paprika.
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.

To serve

  • 4 wholemeal wrap.
  • 1 cup grated Cheddar.
  • 2 avocado, diced.

3. Add in the garlic and spices and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
