Bright and fresh black bean and bell pepper lettuce wraps topped with a creamy cilantro lime sour cream sauce. Plan ahead and make the filling at least a couple hours in advance to give all the flavors a chance to combine.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling

  • 1/2 medium red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 medium yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1 (15.5-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon cumin

  • 1/2 tablespoon cilantro
  • Zest from 1/2 a lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
