Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced red onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften.

Step 3

Add the red bell pepper and zucchini slices to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the black beans to the skillet along with the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes, allowing the beans and spices to heat through and meld with the vegetables.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and stir in the lime juice.

Step 8

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 9

Assemble each wrap by layering 1/2 cup of shredded lettuce, 1/4 of the bean and veggie mixture, and optional toppings like shredded cheddar cheese or sour cream onto a tortilla.

Step 10

Roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a secure wrap.
