1 tsp olive oil
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 cup reduced fat shredded Mexican cheese blend
8 large Iceburg lettuce leaves
12 tbsp Bolthouse Farms Cilantro Avocado Yogurt Dressing
Directions:
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the red bell pepper and scallions to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes until tender.
- 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.

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