Ingredients

For the Buffalo Cauliflower:

• 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
• 1 tin (400g) of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup (240ml) of your favourite buffalo sauce (vegan-friendly)
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wrap:

• 4 whole grain or gluten-free wraps
• Fresh spinach or mixed salad leaves
• Sliced avocado (optional)
• Plant-based ranch dressing or hummus (for added creaminess)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 220°C (428°F).

2. Prepare the Cauliflower and Chickpeas: In a large mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets and drained chickpeas with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Make sure everything is well coated.

3. Buffalo Sauce: Pour half of the buffalo sauce over the cauliflower and chickpeas, combining everything well to ensure an even coating.

4. Bake: Spread the mixture onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender and slightly crispy. Halfway through cooking, take the tray out and give it a gentle toss for even cooking.

5. Wrap Assembly: While the cauliflower and chickpeas are baking, prepare your wraps. Lay out the whole grain or gluten-free wraps on a flat surface.

6. Add Fresh Ingredients: Place a handful of fresh spinach or salad leaves on each wrap. If you’re using avocado, slices can be added at this stage for that creamy touch.

7. Fill with Buffalo Mix: Once the cauliflower and chickpeas are ready, remove them from the oven and allow to cool slightly before spooning onto the wraps. Drizzle the remaining buffalo sauce over the mixture, then top with your preferred plant-based ranch dressing or hummus for extra creaminess.

8. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll it tightly from the bottom up. You may want to secure it with a toothpick or wrap it in foil if you’re preparing it for later.

9. Serve: Cut the wrap in half and serve immediately. Pair with a side of crunchy veggies or a light salad for a complete meal.
