EwE - Wrap It Up - Carribean Chickpea Curry Wraps



Eating with Ellie is taking a different turn.  From now on, instead of choosing particular recipes, we are allocated a theme each week and can make whatever we want from Weeknight Wonders that matches the theme.  I have never participated in a group like this before, so I will see how it goes.

 This week's theme was chosen by Kayte.  It is "Wrap It Up".  I took it quite literally, and chose Carribean Chickpea Curry Wraps.  These are comprised of a wholemeal tortilla wrapped around a hot and spicy curry of chickpeas and butternut squash.  

 On the whole, I enjoyed this dish, but would tone down the spices a little next time.  I found it slightly too hot for my tastes, and added a dollop of yoghurt to my wrap to cool things down a little.

 To see what the others made of this week's theme, visit the LYL section of the EwE website.

    Sounds interesting to be shaking things up the group - and love the wraps - we are really into wraps lately so I could imagine having this

    Almost made that one myself. But it did look a little spicy for us! Sounds good though!

    I once devoured all things hot and spicy, Gaye. Not anymore, although, I'm not quite sure why. I think Marion has influenced my taste buds, lol...

    Toned down with yogurt I bet this wrap was so much better:)

    Thanks for sharing, Gaye...

    Yum, I think that looks so delicious. A theme is an interesting way to cook-a-long!!

    Your wrap looks really good, thanks for the tip on decreasing the spices in it (and the dollop works well for that as well I am sure) as I am not one for very spicy things...I always order everything mild. I do like the looks of this one so I will try it for sure at some point.

    I left a comment on this post before but I'm visiting again as I had a chance to make this theme for posting and I made Asian Chicken Wrap from So Easy and loved it so thought I would let you know as I know you recently got the So Easy book. I am looking at your wrap again today and have the ingredients on hand and for some reason, spicy feels like a definite possibility today so I just might go for this one and hopefully have a place to post it at a later date. :-)
