1/4 cup minced red bell peppers 

1/4 cup minced scallions 

12 oz leftover turkey breast, diced small 

1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained 

1/2 cup frozen spinach, thawed and drained 

2 tbsp diced jarred jalapeno peppers 

1 teaspoon cumin 

1 teaspoon chili powder 

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions:

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Add the diced turkey, black beans, spinach, jalapeno peppers, cumin, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to the pan. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring well so the spinach gets mixed in with everything.

5. Top each wrap with 2 tbsp cheese and 1 1/2 tbsp avocado sauce if desired.
