Beef and Mango Wraps
Prep: 15 minutes Total: 15 minutes
Bring out leftover or store-bought, cooked roast beef, and wrap up dinner plans. The meat is rolled with mango, pepper, and onion for a light meal that tastes of the tropics; serve herbed black beans on the side.
Ingredients
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2 limes) or bottled like i used
1 Tablespoon olive oil
coarse salt and ground pepper
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper (ribs and seeds removed), halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into thin strips 1 mango (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
4 whole-wheat tortillas (10-inch)
4 Cups loose spinach (about 5 ounces), trimmed, well washed and dried
1 Pound cooked beef, very thinly sliced, room temperature
Black-Bean Relish (below; optional) we didn't make this but it sure sounded great!

1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced

Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lime juice, and oil; season with salt and pepper. Add onion, bell pepper, and mango; toss to combine. just an idea, but it may be easier to chop all the fruit/veggies instead of making strips. that's would i would do next time though. Set aside.
Lay tortillas on a work surface; dividing evenly, line each with spinach, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Arrange beef slices down center of each wrap. Top beef with mango mixture and any juices from bowl.
Fold in two opposite sides, and roll up wraps tightly; cut in half.
