A quick and nutritious wrap featuring creamy avocado, protein-packed chickpeas, and crunchy vegetables, all rolled in a crisp sheet of nori for a sushi-inspired, plant-based meal.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 full-size nori sheets
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced or mashed
  • 1/2 cup canned chickpeas, drained and lightly mashed
  • 1/4 cucumber, julienned
  • 1 small carrot, julienned
  • 1/4 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup mixed greens or lettuce
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
  • Optional: 2 tbsp hummus, tahini-mayo, or spicy mayo for spread

Instructions

  1. Drain and lightly mash chickpeas in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and a spoonful of hummus or lemon juice if desired.
  2. Place one nori sheet on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of hummus or sauce down the center if using.
  3. Layer with chickpea mash, avocado, cucumber, carrot, bell pepper, greens, and sesame seeds if using.
  4. Fold the bottom edge over the filling and roll tightly away from you, tucking ingredients as you go.
  5. Dampen the top edge of the nori to seal the wrap closed.
  6. Use a sharp, damp knife to slice the wrap in half. Repeat with the second nori sheet.
  7. Serve immediately, or wrap tightly for later if consuming within a few hours.

Notes

  • Assemble just before eating for the best texture—nori softens over time.
  • Use fresh, crisp nori for optimal wrapping and taste.
  • Balance textures with creamy avocado, crunchy veggies, and soft chickpeas.
  • Dampen knife blade to ensure clean, neat slices.
