It's easy-to-make and super yummy as we get in restaurants!

4 Whole Wheat Tortillas
¼ Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

1 Cube Cream Cheese
1 Tablespoons Chopped Coriander leaves
1 Tablespoon Oil
2 Small Green chillis - finely chopped
2-3 leaves Lettuce Leaves
1 Small 
Carrot  - shreded
1 Small Cucumber - peeled, de seeded & 
shreded 
Roasted Tomato Salsa Sauce   as required
1 Tablespoon Lemon juice or to taste

Method

Soak the black bean for 3 hours and then boil them in a pressure cooker in 2 cups water till done.
Heat a skillet with garlic infused oil over medium flame. Add the onions, cumin, and salt and cook stirring occasionally for 3 to 4 minutes until they just start to turn golden.
Add the garlic and cook for a minute. Add the capsicum and toss them, now add the  ranch seasoning spice mix, cook for a minute, stirring. Add the beans and cook for a minute more, taste for salt , add accordingly. Remove from heat. Add the coriander leaves, green chillies  and cream cheese mix well,  set aside.

Place whole wheat tortilla on a work surface, spread 1 or 2 tsp of Roasted Pumpkin Hummus over it, leaving an inch at the border.
Add a large spoonful of the beans in the center of the tortilla
lettuce, tomato, shreded carrot, cucumber.
 Top it with Roasted Tomato Salsa Sauce and grated cheese as per you taste.
Then finally roll it. like wise make the rest
Enjoy with an extra spoon of hummus or your favorite sauce! 
Or you can grill these in a sandwich toaster and then enjoy!!
Enjoy a satisfying, healthy, veggie packed breakfast or lunch.  
My Notes
I used a little butter while grilling the tortilla to make it crispy.You can use a pan too to toast these. 
Salsa sauce is optional.
You can add other veggies as well like spinach, radish, etc. I used whatever available at home.

Make this a head and cling wrap them, when needed just toast/grill and enjoy.
