4 cups romaine lettuce or fresh spinach, roughly chopped
2 large avocados, sliced
2 red bell peppers, julienned
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 x 15 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
Salt and black pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Preparing the Vegetables

Thinly slice red onion and cucumber, place on serving platter
Roughly chop lettuce or remove tough stems from spinach, place on platter
Slice avocados, season lightly with salt and pepper to prevent browning
Julienne bell peppers, halve cherry tomatoes, place on platter
Drain and rinse black beans, place in serving bowl

Setting Up the Wrap Bar

Arrange all vegetables together on serving platters and trays
Place black beans, sunflower seeds, and hummus in bowls alongside
Leave tortillas in their bag at the start of the serving line
Set out salt and pepper for seasoning

Assembling the Wraps

Lay tortilla flat, spread hummus across the entire surface
Layer preferred vegetables, black beans, and sunflower seeds down the center
Season with salt and pepper
Fold sides in, roll from the bottom up tucking firmly as you go

Serve: Serve immediately after rolling for best texture. Wraps can be cut in half diagonally for easier handling if preferred. Keep avocado slices covered or lightly dressed with lemon juice until serving to prevent browning.
