Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a mixing bowl, combine 1 can of drained and rinsed chickpeas with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt.
Toss until the chickpeas are well coated. Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for 20 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden.
While the chickpeas are roasting, prepare the flatbreads by mixing 1 cup of whole wheat flour with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and enough water to form a soft dough.
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, then divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a flat circle about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
In a separate bowl, mix 2 cups of fresh spinach with the juice of 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of black pepper.
Once the chickpeas are done, assemble the flatbreads by layering the spinach mixture and crispy chickpeas on top.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro if desired.
