Preparation

Step 1

TACO SEASONING:

Mix all of the spices together in a small bowl.

Carefully mix pepper and taco seasoning into garbanzo beans in a small bowl. Some will have more seasoning than the rest but they will still absorb the flavor and crunch with baking.

Preheat oven 400°F. Spread olive oil onto baking sheet and spread out the garbanzo beans onto the pan. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes.

In a small saute pan add peaches, corn, and tomato with 1/8 teaspoon olive oil. Heat on low until warm. Add the brown sugar and cook until dissolved. Make sure to buy brown sugar that doesn’t use bone char filtration to make them vegan.

Lay tortillas flat and evenly distribute the salsa, lettuce, and chickpeas onto each tortilla. Be careful when folding because the tortillas are very delicate. I had to eat mine with a fork.
