These wraps are a great veggie recipe. The addition of sweet potato means they are filling and great for using up leftover vegetables. Tins of mixed beans are a great cupboard staple; they’re already cooked so no need to soak them overnight. We rely on bread so much, so it’s great to use wraps as a tasty alternative for sandwiches.

1tsp mexican seasoning
100g cheddar cheese, grated
