Curry Chickpea Lettuce Wraps

When you are craving something healthy with a TON of flavor. This is what you are looking for. This is a super easy and light meal. I found it on pinterest and only slightly adapted. Original from Naturally Ella can be found here.  There are a couple of ideas for variations there. We used it for lettuce wraps for dinner, Then tossed the leftover chickpea mixture on some mixed greens for a salad the next day. She also has some interesting ideas for making your own curry powder. I just used the plain curry power I buy from Kroger!
