Mission® Zero Net Carbs Tomato Basil
1
can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
8
oz halloumi, cut into 1-inch cubes
2
tbsp olive oil
2
tsp za’atar seasoning
1
tsp dried Italian seasoning
Cucumber Salsa
1 1/2
cups diced cucumber
1/3
cup sun-dried tomatoes (see tip), finely chopped

2
tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2
tbsp olive oil
4
tsp finely chopped fresh dill
1/2

1/4

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Cucumber Salsa

In medium bowl, toss together cucumber, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, lemon juice, oil, dill, salt and pepper until combined. Let stand for 10 minutes.

Step 2: Preheat Oven

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450°F.

Step 3: Prepare Chickpeas and Halloumi Filling

In another medium bowl, toss together chickpeas, halloumi, olive oil, za’atar seasoning and Italian seasoning until coated. Arrange on unlined baking sheet.

Step 4: Roast Chickpeas and Halloumi Filling

Roast, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. (Alternatively, preheat air fryer to 400°F according to manufacturer’s instructions. Add chickpea and halloumi mixture to air-fryer basket and air-fry, tossing halfway through, for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.)

Step 5: Warm Tortillas

Meanwhile, warm tortillas according to package directions.

Step 6: Serve Tacos

Divide chickpea and halloumi mixture among tortillas and top with cucumber salsa.

Tip: If using oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drain oil from sun-dried tomatoes, and substitute olive oil in Step 1 with an equal amount of the oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes. If sun-dried tomatoes are not packed in oil and are not pliable, soak in hot boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain.
