Ingredients:

  • 1 flour tortilla
  • 3/4 cup diced eggplant
  • 1/3 cup pinto beans
  • 1/3 tomato, diced
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • Cumin, oregano, and black pepper
  • Small amount of salt

Instructions:

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss eggplant with oil, cumin, oregano, black pepper, and a small amount of salt. Spread on a small sheet pan and roast for 15 to 20 minutes until tender and browned.
  2. Warm the pinto beans in a small saucepan or skillet with 1 tablespoon water and a pinch of cumin.
  3. Warm the tortilla until flexible. Spoon the roasted eggplant and beans down the center, then add fresh tomato.
  4. Fold in the sides and roll tightly. Return the wrap to a dry skillet for 1 minute per side if you would like the outside lightly toasted.

Good for: A satisfying vegetarian lunch with creamy beans and deeply flavored roasted eggplant.

Optional: Add shredded cheese before rolling, or a few finely chopped jalapeño pieces for heat.
