Quinoa, Avocado, Black bean and Tomato Wrap


Make the quinoa and beans early in the week for quick-prep lunch!

  • ½ cup cooked quinoa
  • ½ cup canned or cooked black beans, drained - Store unused portion for later wraps
  • ¼ ripe avocado
  • 6-8 spinach leaves
  • ¼ cup diced tomato
  • large (9-inch) multi-grain or spinach tortilla – You can also skip the tortilla and wrap it in lettuce or collard green, or just mix the quinoa mixture with some spinach leaves

Place all ingredients (evenly distributed) in center of tortilla and fold together so contents don’t fall out.
