🥣 Instructions
Prep:
Preheat your oven’s broiler to high and position a rack about 6 inches from the top heat source. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.Place the Peppers:
Set the red bell pepper and jalapeño on the prepared baking sheet, whole and uncut.Broil:
Broil for about 8–12 minutes, turning occasionally with tongs until the skins are blistered and charred on all sides. The bell pepper will take a bit longer than the jalapeño.Steam & Peel:
Immediately transfer the hot peppers to a bowl and cover with a plate or plastic wrap. Let them steam for 10–15 minutes—this loosens the skins.Peel & Prep:
Once cool enough to handle, peel off the charred skins and discard the stems and seeds. For a smokier sauce, you can leave a bit of char on.
Make the Bean Mixture:
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in cherry tomatoes and taco seasoning, cooking until the tomatoes begin to soften and break down. Add black beans and salt, cook for another 2-3 minutes. Set aside.Make the Roasted Pepper Sauce:
In a blender, combine the roasted red pepper, roasted jalapeño, soaked cashews, lime juice, plant milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and hot sauce. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.Assemble the Wraps:
Warm the tortillas briefly in a pan or microwave until pliable. Spread a spoonful of the roasted pepper sauce onto each tortilla. Layer with black bean mixture, avocado slices, mango, microgreens, and a sprinkle of cilantro.Wrap & Serve:
Roll each tortilla into a wrap or burrito. Slice in half and serve with extra roasted pepper sauce on the side for dipping.
Nourish Your Morning: The Health & Wellness Benefits of Sunrise Fiesta Wraps 🌱🌞
Starting your day with a nutrient-dense, plant-forward breakfast can set the tone for sustained energy, mental clarity, and better digestion. These Sunrise Fiesta Wraps aren’t just delicious—they’re packed with whole food ingredients that support your health from the inside out.
Let’s start with the black beans—a powerhouse of plant-based protein and fiber. Just one cup delivers around 15 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber, which helps regulate blood sugar, supports digestive health, and keeps you fuller longer. The combination of beans with the fresh sautéed cherry tomatoes, onion, garlic, and jalapeño adds immune-boosting antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits, especially from compounds like allicin in garlic and capsaicin in jalapeño.
The roasted pepper cashew sauce is more than just a flavor bomb—it’s a creamy, dairy-free alternative rich in heart-healthy fats and minerals. Cashews provide magnesium, copper, and zinc, all essential for energy production, mood regulation, and skin health. Roasted red pepper and lime juice contribute vitamin C, while the addition of garlic and hot sauce supports detoxification and metabolism. Plus, blending in plant milk keeps the sauce light while adding a touch of calcium and B vitamins, especially if you're using a fortified variety.
Avocado is a celebrated superfood for good reason—its monounsaturated fats support cardiovascular health and help absorb fat-soluble vitamins. It also offers potassium (more than bananas!) and fiber to balance blood pressure and support a healthy gut.
Then there’s the mango, which adds a naturally sweet, tropical element and a burst of vitamin A, C, and antioxidants like zeaxanthin and beta-carotene. These compounds help protect your vision, immune system, and skin while giving your breakfast a refreshing brightness.
Microgreens and fresh cilantro aren’t just garnish—they’re nutrient-dense greens that deliver concentrated amounts of vitamins and enzymes. Microgreens have been shown to contain up to 40 times more nutrients than their mature counterparts, depending on the variety. Cilantro supports natural detoxification, especially heavy metal elimination, and aids digestion.
Wrapping it all in a flour tortilla provides a satisfying, comforting base—but feel free to choose a whole grain or gluten-free option depending on your dietary needs. The versatility of this breakfast makes it easy to adapt to your wellness goals without compromising flavor.
This wrap is naturally vegan, dairy-free, and full of whole ingredients, making it a smart choice whether you’re plant-based or simply aiming to eat more mindfully. Each bite delivers a blend of complex carbs, healthy fats, and protein—offering the ideal macro balance to energize your day without the crash of sugary cereals or processed options.
Pair it with a herbal tea, your favorite cold brew, or a green smoothie for a well-rounded morning ritual that’s as joyful as it is nourishing.
So go ahead—wrap up some wellness, and start your day with a fiesta of flavor and feel-good fuel. 🌯✨
