Fast, Easy, and Healthy Family Meal- Make a Bean and Veggie Whole Wheat Wrap in 5 Minutes

Healthy Bean and Vegetable Whole Wheat Wrap

Do you need an idea for a quick, easy meal that does not require cooking? Well these wraps are super nutritious and easy as 1-2-3 to put together and get on the table. My kids love wraps and this one is definitely healthy and filling.

Ingredients

• 1 can Vegetarian Refried Beans (Low fat)
• 1 10 pack of Low fat Whole Wheat Tortillas
• 1 Tomato (diced)
• 2% Sharp Cheddar Cheese(Lowfat)
• 1 Avocado (chopped)
• Shredded Romaine Lettuce
• 1 bunch Cilantro (optional)

How to Make:

Warm refried beans of med. heat and then remove or microwave them (optional- heat your burrito at the end instead). Next, take a tortilla (warm if desired) and lay out flat on a large plate. Now spread a layer of beans on the tortilla and then add vegetables (I put the veggies I know my child will eat and maybe a little bit of something new). Last I will add the cheese and wrap it up (either use a paper towel to wrap it or a toothpick if it will not stay closed). You can either serve or warm up burrito in microwave for 10-30 seconds.

Serve with a side of fruit and you will have a meal that is healthy, and has protein, fiber, whole grains, vegetables and fruit! And you get a healthy 1 dish meal your family will love without cooking a thing! This has become a favorite lunch or dinner at my house.

When you first serve this, if your kids are not used to this type of food, I would recommend trying it with only lettuce or a vegetable he/she likes and if you need to put just a bit of a low-fat salad dressing on top to give it a little more flavor that they are used to eating.
