Ingredients
  

  • * Black beans: 1 cup about 240 ml
  • * Ripe avocado: 1 large
  • * Whole grain or spinach tortilla wraps: 2
  • * Fresh spinach: 1 cup about 240 ml
  • * Cherry tomatoes: 1/2 cup about 120 ml, halved
  • * Red onion: 1/4 chopped
  • * Lime: 1 juiced
  • * Fresh cilantro: 1/4 cup about 60 ml, chopped
  • * Salt: 1/2 tsp about 2.5 ml
  • * Pepper: 1/4 tsp about 1.25 ml
  • * Olive oil: 1 tbsp about 15 ml

Method
 

  1. Start by prepping your veggies: Slice your avocado into thin slices, chop the red onion, halve your cherry tomatoes, and finely chop the cilantro.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine your black beans with half of the lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Take your tortilla wrap and lay it flat. Start with a generous layer of fresh spinach.
  4. Add your seasoned black beans on top, spreading them evenly.
  5. Place the avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, and red onions atop the beans.
  6. Drizzle with olive oil and the remaining lime juice.
  7. Sprinkle chopped cilantro for that fresh zing.
  8. Roll your wrap tightly, tucking in the edges as you go to seal in all those yummy ingredients.
  9. Heat a pan over medium heat. Once warm, place your Black Bean and Avocado Wrap in the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  10. Remove from heat, slice in half, and get ready for a taste explosion!

Notes

1. For an extra protein kick, consider adding some grilled chicken or tofu.
2. Love cheese? Sprinkle some feta or goat cheese for a tangy twist.
3. If you're into heat, add some jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
4. Opt for a whole grain or spinach tortilla for extra nutrients and flavor.
