Let’s Make It Together
Creating these delightful burrito wraps is as easy as pie—and just as satisfying. Start by preparing your ingredients, letting the warmth of the kitchen wrap around you as you sink into that cozy cooking mode. Grab a mixing bowl and start by mashing the avocado; you want it creamy but with a few small chunks for texture. The moment you mix it with lime juice, the tanginess will brighten your day.
Next, gently fold in the black beans, sweet corn, fresh cilantro, and vibrant red onion. Each addition adds a splash of color and a burst of flavor. The cumin and chili powder kick it up a notch, infusing warmth that invites you to savor the process. After a quick warm-up for the tortillas in a skillet—just enough to soften them and release their aroma—you’re ready to fill them. Spoon in your colorful mixture, fold the tortillas over tightly, and there you have it! Instant comfort that’s all yours.

Perfect Pairings
These 10-Minute Vegan Burrito Wraps are fantastic on their own, but they truly shine when paired with a few simple sides. Think of a zesty quinoa salad or some homemade tortilla chips with fresh salsa. For a drink, a refreshing lemonade or a cool iced tea complements the vibrant flavors beautifully. Picture a cozy family dinner around the table, everyone digging in and sharing stories from their day as they savor each delicious bite. It’s moments like these that make cooking at home so rewarding.
Keep It Fresh
To keep your burrito wraps at their freshest, refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container. They should stay good for around three days. If you want to extend their life, you can freeze the filled tortillas wrapped in plastic wrap or foil. Just remember to thaw them in the fridge overnight before reheating. A quick pop in the microwave or a warm-up on the skillet can breathe new life into these wraps when you’re ready to enjoy them again!
Betty’s Secrets
- For a creamier texture, try mixing in a spoonful of Greek yogurt or vegan sour cream into the filling.
- Don’t skip on seasoning your black beans! A pinch of garlic powder or lime zest can really elevate their flavor.
- If you like a bit of heat, add some diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes to the filling.
- To make these burritos gluten-free, use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
- Let the burritos rest for a minute after folding; this helps the filling settle and makes for easier handling.
Creative Twists
- For a seasonal twist, add diced roasted sweet potatoes in the fall— they add a lovely sweetness!
- In the summer, toss in some fresh chopped mango for a refreshing zing that perfectly balances the spices.
- For a Mediterranean flair, try swapping black beans for chickpeas and adding a sprinkle of feta cheese and oregano.
