I love it when a recipe tastes so good you can’t believe it’s healthy! I was able to get a pre-release copy of Eating Well: Fast & Flavorful Meatless Meals, and decided to give this recipe a try.
Ingredients:
- 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce (finely chopped)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 C red cabbage (shredded)
- 1 medium carrot (shredded)
- 1/4 C fresh chopped cilantro
- 15 oz can white beans (rinsed)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 C shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 Tbsp minced red onion
- 4 wraps
Directions:
1. Whisk together vinegar, oil, chile, and salt. Add cabbage, carrot, and cilantro; mix well and set aside.
2. Mash beans and avocado; stir in cheese and onion.
3. Serve on a tortilla using about 1/2 C of the bean mix and 2/3 C of the cabbage-carrot mixture.
Serves 4
The Verdict: I loved the bold, fresh flavors and saved some for lunch for next week.

Mmmm….beans, cheese, cabbage, avocado….if lovin’ you is wrong, I don’t wanna be right. Thankfully…there is nothing wrong with lovin’ this!
Wendy,
This looks great! We love wraps! It is hard to get good ones that are gluten free, but I have a few recipes, one that I have been meaning to try again.
Thanks for the wonderful idea of what to put inside!!
This looks so good!
I am not even kidding when I tell you that I have been looking for a new White Bean recipe. This is like, divine bean intervention. Love it.
I made this for dinner last night and it was great! As were the leftovers for lunch today!
I’m so glad! Unfortunately my leftovers didn’t survive the weekend, I guess I’ll have to make another batch 🙂
Love this combination beans, avocado, cilantro… Yes I’m latina and we love our avocado, will try it soon it looks soo yummy.
Oh yum! I think I have nearly everything to make this too… Thanks for posting it =D
These wraps look fantastic and that flavour combination sounds delicious! I like how the beans and avocado are mashed together so that you don’t have escape artist beans.
This does looks so fresh and yummy! I think it would make a great lunch. Thanks for sharing this with us at the Hearth and Soul Hop!
What a healthy and delicious meal! The chipotle must add a really nice smokiness and kick that contrasts well with the creaminess of the avocado and the mildness of the beans!
Thank you so much for sharing your culinary talent and tasty recipes at “A Little Birdie Told Me…”

I’m guessing it will be a challenge to find ?2 tsp canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce (finely chopped) in my small town. Any suggestions for a substitute? This sounds so yummy!
actually it might not be difficult. Try the “Mexican” section (by the tortilla shells, salsa, etc.) near the canned jalapenos. I’ve found it even in small grocery stores before. It’s usually in a tiny little can.
