Ingredients

• 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1 medium red onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp Ground Cumin
• 1 tsp Ground Coriander
• 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
• 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 4 whole pita breads
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup cucumber, sliced
• 1/2 cup red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup tzatziki sauce

Instructions

1. Combine chickpeas, red onion, garlic, parsley, Ground Cumin, Ground Coriander, Cayenne Pepper, flour, baking powder, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is well combined and holds together.
2. Shape the mixture into small balls and flatten each slightly to form patties.
3. Preheat a skillet with olive oil over medium heat. Add falafel patties and cook until they are golden and crispy, typically about 3-4 minutes on each side.
4. Warm the pita breads lightly in the oven or on a skillet just until they are soft and pliable.
5. To assemble the wraps, lay out the pita bread and evenly distribute the falafel, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red bell pepper on each. Generously top with tzatziki sauce.
6. Fold the wraps carefully and serve while warm.
