Ingredients:

3/4 pound thinly sliced deli roast beef

1/2 cup fat-free black bean dip

4 large (about 10-inch diameter) flour tortillas

1 cup thinly sliced lettuce

3/4 cup chopped tomato

1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced-fat taco seasoned cheese

Salsa (optional)

 

Ingredients:

1. Spread black bean dip evenly over one side of each tortilla. Layer deli roast beef over bean dip, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges. Sprinkle equal amounts of lettuce, tomato and cheese over each tortilla. Fold right and left sides to center, overlapping edges. Fold bottom edge of tortilla up over filling and roll closed.

Chef's Tip: When preparing ahead, or packing in a lunch, tightly wrap the wraps in plastic wrap and store in refrigerator or in lunch cooler with a cold pack.
