    This Crispy Bean & Rice Folded Wrap is like a mix between a quesadilla and a traditional wrap. Beans, rice, avocado, lettuce and pico are loaded up in a big tortilla, wrapped up and cooked until crispy. Served up with a lighter vegan ranch & hot sauce. These make a great weeknight dinner or an easy on-the-go lunch!

    How to Prep the Filling

    If you haven't tried my Mexican Rice recipe, then this is the perfect time to give it a whirl. It is super easy and gives these wraps a little something special. Plus, you can use the leftovers in taco bowls the next day. You can also sub a pre-made rice packet, but if you have a couple extra minutes, I'd make it from scratch.

    The beans are kept simple. You just need 1 can of black beans and a couple tablespoons of taco seasoning. Cook that down in a skillet, adding water as needed, then gently mash until you like the consistency. I personally like to keep some of the beans intact for more texture.

    The rest of the filling consists of avocado, pico and shredded lettuce. You can make the pico yourself, or buy it pre-made like I did. This recipe can be as simple as you want it to be.

    How to assemble

    These wraps are extra fun because of the way they are assembled. Just grab a knife and cut a slit in the tortilla from the center down to the bottom. Now you have 4 easily visible quadrants.

    Take your ingredients and add one to each quadrant - being sure not to overfill. Starting in the bottom left corner, fold up and work your way around clockwise. Now, you're going to be left with a perfectly folded wrap and you can give it a quick fry.

    You don't need a lot of oil to fry these, just a light coating in the bottom of a skillet.

    How to Serve

    If you thought I wasn't going to serve these wraps with a sauce, then do we even know each other? I whipped up a cilantro yogurt ranch that is my absolute favorite. It is lower in calories, but doesn't skip on those traditional ranch flavors.

    I also added some hot sauce and extra pico. The more sauces the better! Get to dipping and dig in!

      This was very good and filling. Took me a time or two to judge the amount of each to put on the tortilla. You don't want it too fat or it won't fold well. I made extra guacamole and had extra pico and served that with it. I will definitely make this again.
