Wizard Roll-Ups

    Serves 2 | Nothing short of a jazzed-up bean burrito, wizard roll-ups are my go-to meal on nights I’m not in the mood to cook. This my basic template—I won’t even call it a recipe—works with every kind of bean and salsa combination you can come up with. Stir in any leftover veggies and grains you have on hand and let the wizard work his magic on your leftovers.
    1 15-oz can pinto beans,
drained and rinsed
2 tbsp salsa, or to taste
leftover vegetables or
grains
2 whole-wheat wraps or
corn tortillas
    1. Combine pinto beans with 2 tbsp of salsa in food processor. Pulse or allow the motor to run until the beans are chunky or pureed, your choice.
    2. Add more salsa if necessary or desired, but be careful not to make it too watery. If using pinto beans and traditional tomato-based salsa, the mixture should be a bit pink.
    3. Mix in leftover grains or veggies, or puree them with the beans.
    4. Slather into warmed wraps, roll up, and enjoy!
