Instructions
Jackfruit: If using packaged jackfruit, drain, and wash well. Shred or thinly slice jackfruit. Place large pan or skillet with 1 teaspoon of avocado oil over medium heat. Heat the oil, then add shredded jackfruit and all dry spices. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until spices become aromatic. Add lime juice, water, and monk fruit or coconut sugar. Partially cover the skillet and cook until mixture has dried (about 28 minutes), stirring occasionally. Once the mixture is dry, reduce heat to medium and add salt and pepper to taste. Add remaining avocado oil and cook until the jackfruit edges are golden brown.
Caribbean black beans: Add avocado oil, onions, and garlic to a medium pan over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes or until onions are translucent and garlic is aromatic. Add black beans, spices, water, and orange (or lime juice). Simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Assembly:
Warm a tortilla or wrap on a pan, then layer the wraps in this order: black beans, cilantro, chopped greens, jerk jackfruit, cucumber, mango, pickled veggies, lemon or lime juice, salt, and pepper. Fold the wrap into a burrito and serve.
