Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 45 minutes

Servings: 4 wraps

Skill Level: Easy

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 cup lettuce, shredded
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 gluten-free tortillas
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
  4. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the lime crema by mixing the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and fresh cilantro in a small bowl. Set aside.
  5. Once the sweet potatoes are done, warm the gluten-free tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable.
  6. Assemble the wraps: Place some shredded lettuce in the center of each tortilla, followed by a generous scoop of roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, avocado slices, and red onion. Drizzle with lime crema.
  7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from bottom to top. Slice each wrap in half, if desired, and serve on a rustic wooden board.

Helpful Tips

If you’re new to making wraps, warm tortillas are easier to handle and less likely to tear. You can also customize this recipe by adding corn, cheese, or your favorite salsa.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftover ingredients separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Assembled wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can be kept for 1 day if tightly wrapped in plastic wrap.

Ingredient Substitutions

If you don’t have Greek yogurt, a dairy-free yogurt or sour cream would work just as well for the lime crema.

Pairings

These wraps pair wonderfully with a crisp side salad or a light soup. For a drink, consider serving with fresh lemonade or sparkling water with lime.
