What to Serve/Pair with Mediterranean Chickpea Salad Wraps
If you’ve looked at any of my wrap recipes, you know that I always like to pair them with something crunchy! My go-to is usually carrot sticks or celery, but I know that that’s not always the most tantalizing option. If your go-to is usually chips, try a healthy alternative. I like to have chickpea crisps or even protein popcorn with my wraps.

Travel Tips
How do they travel?
The best thing about these wraps is how portable they are! You will want to keep them chilled, so an insulated bag with an ice pack would be handy. Because these wraps are handheld, you can eat them just about anywhere, even on the go.
How do I package them?
These wraps are very easy to package. You can wrap them up individually, or put them into a sealed portable container. I recommend sealing each wrap with a toothpick so that they don’t pop open.
