Preheat oven to 350°F, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
In a food processor, combine chickpeas, red onion, garlic, parsley, olive oil, lemon juice, smoked paprika, chili powder, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and similar to a chunky hummus. Transfer mixture to a bowl and fold in quick oats and shredded carrots.

Serve alone or in a pita sandwich.
