    This Mexican Black Bean Wrap is the perfect summer meal ... no cooking required!

    Mexican Black Bean Wrap with Avocado & Tri-Color Slaw | Hello Little Home #recipe #vegetarian #nocook

    The heat and humidity have officially settled in here, and I'll pretty much do anything to avoid standing over a hot stove.

    Which means that I'm continually on the hunt for no cook summer recipes.

    One thing I always love eating in summer is a delicious sandwich. They're so easy to throw together, and you can really get creative with ingredients. After making my Chinese Chopped Salad last week, I had some leftover ingredients that I decided to turn into a sandwich.

    The result is this Mexican Black Bean Wrap with Avocado and Tri-Color Slaw.

    Mexican Black Bean Wrap

    There's no cooking required, making these wraps the perfect recipe for these hot summer days we're experiencing.

    This Mexican Black Bean Wrap is filled with delicious mashed beans and avocado (no cheese necessary). I used those leftover ingredients to create a super tasty tri-color slaw. The crunchy slaw pairs perfectly with the creamy beans and avocado, and a tortilla holds everything together.

    Try this recipe during your next heat wave or sooner!

    This looks amazing! I see the person above me said the same thing but I too have been obsessed with avocado this summer. I joke with my daughter that I think we both have an avocado addiction... lol. Your wraps look very healthy, as well... 🙂

    But to answer your question, my favorite summer sandwich is a lobster roll... 😉

    Oh this sounds good!! Only for me I would swap out the beans for ground turkey because I have intestinal issues and can not digest beans but the rest of the ingredients is all good!
