Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and diced red bell pepper, cook for another 3 minutes until the pepper softens slightly.
Add meatless turkey crumbles to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in black beans, cumin, chili powder, and salt, mixing well to combine the flavors.
Decrease the heat to low, add the chopped cilantro and lime juice, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Warm the flour tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 30 seconds or heating individually on a skillet for a few seconds on each side.
Place an equal portion of the turkey and bean mixture onto each tortilla.
Top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, a spoonful of salsa, and a few slices of avocado.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll them up tightly to form a burrito.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with extra cilantro and lime wedges.
