The trick to eating with a focus on good nutrition and a tight budget is to think like a restaurant.
Besides frying everything, and using a lot of salt to make everything taste good, restaurants know that layers of flavor are the key to a good dish.
If you take a flatbread wrap, throw on some cheese and black beans and nuke it in the microwave, it’s a little bit soggy and sad.
But if you heat the beans first, and then layer the wrap with cheese, the beans, arugula and top with chunks of bleu cheese, suddenly you have something special.

Recipe Notes
*Note: I don't actually like Bleu Cheese - Mr. SuzerSpace does. I make my version with Feta, but we still call them Black and Bleu Wraps. Sounds fancier that way 🙂

Those look good. We would make it goat cheese at my house, but doesn’t look like the kind of cheese really matters.
Goat cheese would be a great addition!
