Great Tasting Chick Pea and Corn Wrap Recipe!

Great Tasting Chickpea and Corn Wrap Recipe!

One of the best veggie wraps you will ever make!

I came across this recipe on the food network website and added to it to make an amazing tasting meal in a pita. There are two variations here. 

VARIATION 1

Ingredients you will need are:

• 1 cup of fresh corn kernels
• 1 cup of chickpeas
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1/4 cup of bean sprouts
• 2 Tbsp organic cold pressed olive oil
• 1 lemon, zest and juice
• 2 pita pockets
• Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Place corn, chickpeas, green onion, bean sprouts, olive oil, lemon zest and juice and seasoning in a bowl and toss well. Slice the edge of the pitas and open them up and fill with the chickpea mixture. This can also be served as a salad without the pita if you desire.

VARIATION 2

Ingredients you will need are:

• 1 cup of fresh corn kernels
• 1 cup of chickpeas
• 4-6 green onions, chopped
• 1/4 cup of bean sprouts

• 1 small hot pepper, chopped 
• 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
• 2 Tbsp organic cold pressed olive oil
• 1 lemon, zest and juice
• 2 pita pockets
• Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Heat a pan with one tsp olive oil. add onion, hot pepper, green onion garlic and bean sprouts. cook until sprouts are fairly tender. Add corn and chickpeas. Remove from heat after 5 minutes and add remaining olive oil,  lemon zest and juice and seasoning in a bowl and toss well. Slice the edge of the pitas and open them up and fill with the chickpea mixture. note, you can warm up the pita slightly too. Make your own variation.
