The ingredients to this recipe are simple, the outcome is dangerously good, and the ability to switch things up makes these wraps perfect for anybody with a few minutes to spare. You can actually keep it in your fridge and simply spoon some out onto a wrap every morning for a week.

Quinoa is also very healthy and delicious!

 

Ingredients:

1 tbsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder (you can use real)
1 tsp onion powder (you can use real)
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 cup quinoa
2 cups broth
1/4 cup nutritional yeast (optional vegan substitute for cheese)
1 can organic beans of your choice (I used pinto, but black beans work too)
Whole wheat wraps
Lettuce, avocado, salsa, green onion, other toppings of your choice…

Method:

Gently toast the quinoa in a heated pan for 5 minutes.

Add broth and continue cooking. As water starts to evaporate, add spices, nutritional yeast and beans. Continue stirring as quinoa needs a little love and attention.

Cut up your lettuce, veggies, etc.

Once water has completely evaporated, add the lime juice (to taste), spoon into wrap, add your toppings and eat up.

This recipe is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner!
