Avocado & Black Bean Kale Wraps

I tried a similar version of these avocado black bean wraps at a restaurant years ago and loved them so much I had to recreate them at home! These avocado and black bean kale wraps are delicious, flavorful, and hearty. These vegetarian wraps are loaded with different plant foods, making them a great option for supporting gut health. Creamy avocado-kale with sharp cheddar cheese and savoury grilled onion make for the perfect flavour combination. Easily make this a gluten-free meal by swapping for a corn or gluten-free tortilla. These wraps are the perfect option for a high fiber lunch that will keep you satisfied all afternoon long!

Instructions

1. 1

   Mash avocado with a fork in a large bowl. Add in chopped kale and toss/massage to coat the kale with avocado. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

2. 2

   Add mayonnaise and garlic to a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.

3. 3

   Heat a medium-sized frying pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and 1 Tbsp oil and sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add in strained black beans and stir to combine. Continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes, until onions are translucent and starting to brown. Season with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   To assemble wraps (divide ingredients equally between 4 tortillas): coat wraps with a thin layer of garlic mayo. Add cheddar cheese, onions and black beans, and avocado-kale to tortillas and roll to close.

5. 5

   Grill wraps (seam-side down) on a large frying pan over medium-low heat until browned.

6. 6

   Best served fresh, although leftovers can be stored separately in the fridge for 2 days.
