These wraps are a great veggie recipe. The addition of sweet potato means they are filling and great for using up leftover vegetables. Tins of mixed beans are a great cupboard staple; they’re already cooked so no need to soak them overnight. We rely on bread so much, so it’s great to use wraps as a tasty alternative for sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato, baked whole and left to cool
- 1tsp mexican seasoning
- 100g cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 tin of mixed beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 hot house lettuce
- 4tbsp mayonnaise (optional)
- 4 tortilla wraps
