Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, chopped

• 4 gluten-free tortillas
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1/2 cup fresh salsa

• 1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
2. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3. Stir in the black beans, cumin, smoked paprika, and the chopped chipotle pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
4. Warm the gluten-free tortillas according to package instructions.
5. To assemble the wraps, spread a portion of the bean mixture onto each tortilla. Top with sliced avocado, fresh salsa, and chopped cilantro. Squeeze a lime wedge over the filling for an added zing.
6. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly. Slice the wrap in half to reveal the colorful and delicious filling inside.
7. Serve with additional salsa and tortilla chips on the side. Enjoy with a chilled glass of horchata.

Helpful Tips

• If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of chipotle pepper.
• Add some shredded cheese or a dollop of sour cream to make the wrap even more indulgent.
• For a protein boost, include some grilled chicken or tofu in the wrap.

Storage Instructions

These wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or a warm oven.

Ingredient Substitutions

• Substitute the black beans with pinto beans if preferred.
• Use regular tortillas if gluten-free is not required.

Pairings

Complementary dishes to serve with this wrap include a side salad dressed with lime vinaigrette, a bowl of corn and black bean salad, or a refreshing Mexican street corn (elote). Drinks like horchata or a cold glass of lemonade pair wonderfully with these wraps.
