Simple wraps like this recipe make such a wonderful lunch. I like to prep these on a Sunday and then my lunches are ready to roll for the week. Just leave the dressing and filling in separate containers and compile each wrap day of.

5 whole wheat pitas
5 cups of spinach

Drain and rinse chickpeas and add to a large bowl. Dice cucumber, roma tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and parsley and add to the bowl as well.
