Black Bean Wraps with Avocado Salsa
These wraps will make your tongue happy. trust me. They are seriously so good! These Black Bean Wraps are packed with loads of flavor and color. And they are actually meatless. And Davis still loves them! {they are easy to make vegan as well}
I posted the picture below on Instagram and had several requests for the recipe.
I posted a version of this recipe 2 years ago {back when only a handful of you knew me} we’ll just say my photog skills have improved a little. {at least i like to think so}
Black Been Pitas with Avocado Salsa Recipe
avocado salsa2 avocados, pitted and diced2 cups tomatoes, diced3-4 green onions, chopped2 tablespoons lime juice2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped1/4 teaspoon saltCombine all ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.black bean mixture
1 tablespoon olive oil1 cup chopped onion2 teaspoon minced garlic1/2 teaspoon ground cumin2 16oz can black beans, rinsed and drained1/4 salt (optional)Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, cook until clear. Stir in garlic and cumin. Add beans and salt. Heat thoroughly. Lightly mash the bean mixture, cover and set aside.chipotle mayo1/4 cup mayonnaise (no substitute or it will taste funny. trust me)1/2 teaspoon minced chipotle peppers in adobo (can be found by the canned green chiles usually)Combine the mayonnaise and chipotle in a small bowl. Taste and see how spicy/mild the mixture is and add more of mayo or peppers as needed. With small children, you can leave out the chipotle peppers all together and just use mayo, if you’d like.To make the pitas, spread the mayonnaise over the pita/wrap, then add the bean mixture on top of the mayo, and top with salsa and chopped lettuce {if desired}.Leftovers: The leftovers are just as good as the original, if not better because all the flavors meld together.
