Creating these burrito wraps is a breeze! The process involves simple steps that come together in no time at all. Gather your ingredients, whip up the filling, warm your tortillas, and roll! With just a handful of ingredients, you’ll have a delicious meal ready in 10 minutes flat.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 (15-ounce) can of black beans (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 large ripe avocado
  • ½ cup of frozen or canned corn (thawed/ drained)
  • ¼ cup of finely chopped red onion
  • ¼ cup of fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon of lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon of cumin powder
  • ¼ teaspoon of chili powder
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • 4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas (whole wheat or gluten-free are great substitutes)

Step-by-Step Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, mash your ripe avocado using a fork until it reaches your desired consistency. Mix in the lime juice to keep it vibrant.
  2. Next, add the rinsed black beans, corn, chopped red onion, and cilantro.
  3. Dust the mixture with cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Be cautious with the salt; you can adjust it later.
  4. Gently fold everything together with a spatula, being careful not to over-mix or mash the beans too much.
  5. If you prefer warm tortillas (who doesn’t?), warm them in a skillet for 15-20 seconds per side or wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30-45 seconds.
  6. Lay one tortilla flat, spoon about a quarter of the filling into the center, and shape it into a log.
  7. Fold the short sides over the filling, then roll away from you until completely sealed. Repeat for the rest of the tortillas.
  8. Enjoy your burritos immediately, or slice them for a beautiful presentation.

Best Way to Serve

These burrito wraps are perfect as standalone meals, but you can elevate them with some creative sides. Serve them with salsa, guacamole, or a refreshing salad. They pair well with rice for a more filling dish or alongside tortilla chips for that extra crunch.

Storage Tips

If you have extras, these burrito wraps can be stored for later enjoyment. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. They also freeze well; just make sure they’re wrapped securely to prevent freezer burn. When reheating, enjoy them in a skillet or microwave until heated through to maintain their delightful textures.

Helpful Hints

  • Tip: If you’re short on time, opt for pre-chopped onions and thawed frozen corn to speed things up.
  • Advice: Always taste and adjust your seasonings before assembling the burrito. A squeeze of more lime can brighten the flavors wonderfully.
  • Shortcut: Use avocado dip or pre-made guacamole for an even quicker filling.

Creative Twists

Feel free to get creative with these burrito wraps! Swap in different beans, like pinto or kidney beans, or add roasted vegetables for an extra layer of flavor. If you’re craving spice, toss in some jalapeños or a sprinkle of hot sauce. For a Southwest twist, consider adding some pepper jack cheese or a dairy-free alternative for the vegan version.
