Brush the tops with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, flip, and grill until very tender, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the eggplants to a cutting board, roughly chop, and then gently toss with the chickpea mixture. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
  5. To make wrapsSpread 2 tablespoons of the yogurt sauce on one of the tortillas. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of oregano. Spoon about 1 cup of the chickpea mixture across the tortilla, about 3 inches from the bottom, leaving about an inch on the sides.
