Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

1 medium red bell pepper, diced

1 medium cucumber, finely chopped

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1/2 cup green chili sauce (mild or spicy, based on preference)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tablespoon lime juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Quinoa: If not already cooked, rinse 1/2 cup of quinoa and add it to a pot with 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover, simmering for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let it cool.

    Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced bell pepper, chopped cucumber, and cilantro. Drizzle with lime juice and add the green chili sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

      Assemble the Wraps: Lay a whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a generous scoop of the veggie filling in the center of the tortilla, leaving space at the edges to fold. Add a few slices of avocado on top for creaminess.

        Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then begin rolling it from the bottom up, tightly but gently, to create a wrap. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

          Slice and Serve: For easy packing, slice each wrap in half diagonally. Place them in a lunchbox with a small container of extra green chili sauce for dipping, or serve with a side of your favorite veggie sticks.

            Store for School: If making ahead, wrap each veggie wrap tightly in foil or parchment paper and keep them in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
