Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chickpeas, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 6-8 minutes until they are slightly crispy and golden.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. This is your vegan Caesar dressing.
Wash and coarsely chop the Romaine lettuce. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Set aside.
Warm the whole wheat wraps in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until soft and pliable.
To assemble the wraps, spread about 2 tablespoons of the vegan Caesar dressing on each wrap.
Layer each wrap with 1 cup of chopped Romaine lettuce, a few cherry tomato halves, a quarter of the cooked chickpeas, and a sprinkling of capers.
Drizzle any remaining dressing evenly over the top.
Fold in the sides of the wrap and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.
