Ingredients

  • 520g canned black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 13ml cilantro paste

  • 43.4g shredded white cheddar cheese

  • 361ml liquid egg whites

  • 84g diced red bell pepper

  • 98g diced green bell pepper

  • 92g chopped tomatillo

  • 80g chopped leeks

  • 122g tomato-on-the-vine, sliced

  • 5 red pepper wraps

  • 181g asparagus spears, on the side

  • Spices (1/4 – 1/2 tsp ea.): ground black pepper, roasted garlic powder, cumin, cayenne, oregano

Preparation

  1. Drain and rinse black beans; set aside.

  2. As beans dry, cut off ends of asparagus spears; toss in ground sumac or spice of choice; add to separate pan and sauté until soft, with slight char.

  3. As asparagus cooks, cut up all vegetables.

  4. Spray large pan with olive oil; cook vegetables until soft, ~7 mins, then set aside.

  5. Pour liquid egg whites into same pan; add cilantro paste and spices, then cook on medium heat until cook through.

  6. Divide egg mix into 5 even servings; spoon each serving onto middle of wrap.

  7. Top with equal parts beans, then equal parts shredded cheese.

  8. Roll each one like a burrito, then wrap in aluminum foil. (For this recipe, I warmed each burrito on the panini press, then stored in a container.)

  9. Place each burrito in its own container, then divide asparagus evenly among each.
