Directions

1. Prepare the Black Bean Mix:

FAQs

How can I make this recipe vegan?

Use dairy-free cheese and sour cream alternatives to make the crunch wrap vegan.

Can I prepare the black bean mixture ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the black bean mixture up to 2 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and cook the wraps when ready to serve.

What can I use instead of tostada shells?

If tostada shells are unavailable, you can use crispy tortilla chips or bake small corn tortillas until crispy as a substitute.

How do I prevent the wraps from becoming soggy?

Ensure the black bean mixture is not too liquidy by simmering off excess moisture. Also, pat dry any vegetables before adding them to the wrap.

Can I freeze assembled crunch wraps?

It’s not recommended to freeze assembled crunch wraps, as the texture may become soggy upon thawing. However, you can freeze the black bean mixture separately for up to 3 months.

What type of tortillas work best for this recipe?

Large, burrito-size flour tortillas are ideal for wrapping all the fillings without tearing.

How can I add more protein to this dish?

Add cooked quinoa, tofu, or tempeh to the black bean mixture to increase the protein content.
