It’s like a flavor-packed burrito with a twist. First, let’s talk about the inside, the filling. We’re using rajma, which is just kidney beans. We cook them up with onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers, plus some spices like cumin, coriander, and a bit of chili powder. This mixture becomes this savory, hearty filling for our wraps. Now, let’s dive into the green enchilada sauce. It’s like a zesty, tangy dressing that ties everything together. We mix green tomatillo salsa (think of it as a green tomato-based sauce) with some veggie broth, cumin, and garlic powder. This sauce adds a burst of flavor and a little kick to our wraps.
Putting it all together, we grab some tortillas (you can use whole wheat or corn), warm them up, and fill them with our rajma mixture. On top of that, we add shredded lettuce and cheese for that extra goodness. Finally, we drizzle our green enchilada sauce on everything, sprinkle some cilantro for freshness, and wrap it all up. Think of it like making a delicious, healthy, and filling wrap that combines the heartiness of beans with the freshness of veggies, all brought together by a flavorful green sauce. It’s like a little party of tastes in your mouth—spicy, savory, and a bit tangy.
This recipe is perfect for a quick, satisfying meal that won’t leave you feeling weighed down. It’s also a great way to sneak in some veggies and enjoy the comfort of a wrap with a unique twist. So, gather your ingredients, roll up those wraps, and get ready for a delightful dining experience!
