Ingredients

  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 clove garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 (12-inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup sliced grape tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup sliced olives
  • 16 basil leaves

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the chickpeas, tahini, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, garlic, and salt in a food processor.

  2. 2

    Process until smooth, scraping down the sides and adding 2-3 tablespoons of water until the hummus reaches a creamy and spreadable consistency. Taste and adjust for salt if desired.

  3. 3

    Spread ¼ of the hummus on each tortilla, all the way to the edges.

  4. 4

    Evenly distribute ¼ of the spinach leaves on top of the hummus on each tortilla, leaving a ½-inch border around the edges, followed by ¼ of the tomatoes, olives, and basil.

  5. 5

    Tightly roll up the tortillas, finishing with the seam side down. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to make them easier to slice.

  6. 6

    Lightly slice the rolled-up tortillas into ¾-inch pieces with a serrated knife.

  7. 7

    Arrange the pinwheels on their sides before serving.
