Make Your Pita Wrap Vegetarian for a Plant-Based Version
This vegetarian pita wrap recipe is a simple way to get extra veggies in your diet. I’m all about making recipes plant-based when I can. Vegetarian cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around vegetarian pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make better meals for you and your family.
I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegetarian recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and tasty recipes are fantastic meatless meals for your table.
What’s In This Chickpea Hummus Pita Wrap?
I cook with fresh produce from my garden and from Misfits Market– they sell fantastic fruit, vegetables, & pantry staples at a discounted price. We get Misfit boxes every other week and love picking out favorite produce for delivery. Get $10 off your first box here!
- Lettuce, Spinach, Cucumber, Tomatoes, Onions
- No Salt Added Chickpeas: one of my favorite pantry staple ingredients! You can use canned chickpeas (I’d highly recommend a low sodium or no salt version), or you can make your own chickpeas from scratch in the Instant Pot.
- Hummus of choice – you can check out all my hummus recipes here on The Herbeevore!
- Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry. For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
- Red Wine Vinegar: I used red wine vinegar for the marinade to give this dish a really nice bright Mediterranean flavor – for that, this red wine vinegar is my go-to!
- Oregano: a spice I always put in my chili, tacos, or fajitas! This dried oregano has a bright and earthy flavor, and goes so well with the roasted vegetables.
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- Pita Bread – We usually get a few packs of this pita bread while shopping – it’s rolls your wraps super tight and has a great pocket to load those veggies in!
A No-Cook Lunch Wrap Recipe

I have a whole collection of recipes that require zero cooking at all, check them out here! This chickpea pita wrap comes together in about 10 minutes, and doesn’t require the stove or microwave to make.

How Do I Make a This Chickpea Hummus Pita Recipe?
- In a large serving bowl, add all the salad ingredients and toss well to combine.
- To make the dressing, add all the red wine vinaigrette ingredients to a mason jar (or other air tight container) and seal the lid. Shake vigorously until ingredients are well mixed and dressing is combined. Pour over the salad ingredients.
- Place pita bread on a plate, and carefully open half of the pita along the seam, so you can stuff things inside the pocket. Be careful not to open it all the way, or the wrap will have trouble staying together as you eat.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus in each pita, and use 1/4 of the chickpea salad mixture. Only fill the pita halfway. Roll the pita up into a wrap, slice in half, and enjoy!
