buffalo ranch chickpea wraps

Buffalo wings are high on my list of favorite finger foods, but when it’s not a holiday and I’m not serving a crowd, I don’t really want to deal with the mess of frying wings or drenching them (and my hands!) in sauce. These Buffalo ranch chickpea wraps have that Buffalo flavor I love, in a meatless, handheld format that’s easy to take on the go. Here’s how they come together:

Air fryer chickpeas are a staple snack in my household, so when my husband decided to flavor a batch with ranch seasoning powder, the inspiration for this recipe wasn’t far behind. After the crispy ranch chickpeas come out of the air fryer, they get a quick bath in a combination of hot sauce, melted butter, and honey (to match our OG Buffalo wings recipe, but you can skip or replace), then are loaded into a flour tortilla with vinegary cabbage slaw, crumbled blue cheese, and a hearty serving of ranch dressing. These make a great quick lunch or lazy dinner alongside a pile of salty potato chips or crispy French fries. These are full of protein on their own, but I’ve also been known to use a high-protein tortilla to really pack it in.

This recipe makes 4 wraps, which is great if you’re serving a lunch crowd. If not, feel free to halve or quarter the recipe for however many you need. You should also be able to prep the cabbage slaw ahead of time too.
