Directions
Bake savory chickpea flour flatbreads in the oven, blend a Mediterranean-inspired bean filling, and wrap everything up with fresh greens for a quick, protein-rich Italian vegan lunch. You can make the farinata ahead of time and store in the fridge. The wraps can be served warm or at room temperature—great for meal prep and lunchboxes.
