Introduction
Our very own Station 2 won the 2003 Austin Fire Department’s Healthy Wagon Contest with this very healthful and tasty lunch/dinner wrap. The judges included three experts—the Fire Department’s in-house health specialist, a local representative from the American Heart Association, and a member of the Mayor’s Council for Physical Fitness.The department also sponsored an awards presentation at which we received a little red wagon, a healthy low-fat cookbook, a salad spinner, and fifty dollars to use for a future healthy wagon.
This wrap also makes an excellent dinner.

½ can of corn, rinsed and drained (about 6 ounces)
8 ounces roasted red bell pepper hummus (or 1 cup homemade)

½ can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 roasted poblano pepper, cut into strips (see Roasting Peppers and Fresh Chilies, page 139)

Preheat oven to 450º. Sauté the onion until translucent. Add the bell pepper and cook for 2–3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and corn. Spread a layer of hummus on the wrap.

Easy and fast once you make it a few times. I make leftover filling and then bake it when I want it for dinner or lunch. This made about 5 servings for me, not 2. I added chicken to a few for my boyfriend and he liked them.
I use 1/2 onion and sometimes the whole package of frozen spinach (thawed). - 6/12/11
