Black Bean Lettuce Wraps

Two kinds of bean, corn and a jar of marinara simmered together, then spooned into Bibb lettuce cups. No cooking beyond one skillet, and the filling keeps in the fridge for days.

Caramelize the onion first and give it time. The marinara does the rest of the work, so that onion is the only depth the filling gets.

 1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
 1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained (optional)
 1 (15 oz) can corn, rinsed and drained
 1 tbsp avocado oil
 1 medium onion, chopped
 3 cloves garlic, minced
 1 (24 oz) jar marinara sauce (we love Rao's) - can use less if desired
 ½ tsp salt
 ½ tsp pepper
 Optional: taco seasoning
 Bibb Lettuce
 Optional: guacamole
1

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until caramelized.

2

Add in garlic and saute until fragrant (a few minutes)

3

Add beans, corn marinara sauce, and spices. Mix well, then lower heat and put a lid on the skillet. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4

Scoop into Bibb lettuce, top with optional guacamole, and enjoy!
