1. Prepare the vegetables: dice the avocado, quarter the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red bell pepper.
2. In a small bowl, mix the diced avocado with the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mash lightly to combine, leaving it slightly chunky.
3. Heat the whole wheat tortillas individually in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to soften and lightly toast them.
4. Assemble the wraps: lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface and spread a layer of the avocado mixture in the center.
5. Add a layer of drained black beans (about 1/4 cup per wrap), followed by shredded lettuce or spinach, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper slices, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro.
6. If desired, top with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a splash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
8. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil for an on-the-go meal. Enjoy!
