Black Bean & Spinach Wraps PDF Print E-mail
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • 1 package whole wheat soft tortillas
  • 1 small package frozen spinach
  • 1 cup black beans (canned works, and it's fast)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps spicy cajun seasoning (I use Tony Chachere's)
  • your favorite spreadable, creamy, spicy sauce**
Directions:

Cook spinach according to packaged directions. Add cooked, drained black beans. Mix together, sprinkling cajun seasoning on top (**I recommend Jamaican Jerk sauce, or I use a South African one called "Swazi Mamma Mamba, A Taste of Africa").

Heat tortillas in microwave until warm and soft (about 20-30 seconds, depending on how many and strength of micro.) Sread sauce on tortilla, fill with spinach and black bean mixture.

Makes about 5, depending on how large tortillas you choose are. I make enough for a meal for myself and then have enough left over to have a 5 minute lunch and dinner the next day.

Serves: 5

Preparation time: 10-15 min.
