Mushroom Wraps with Spinach, Bell Peppers, and Goat Cheese
At the end of the century, vegetarian cooking gained wide acceptance and became sophisticated. Wraps (basically burritos) were a hot fast food; everything from Thai chicken to ahi tuna got wrapped in flour tortillas or flatbread. The two trends pair up in this terrific dish. To make these even more like burritos, add one 15- to 16-ounce can of drained black beans to the filling.
