    http://images.lifescript.com/media/images/eatingwell/large/MP5570.JPG

    * 1 tablespoon canola oil
    * 1 medium onion, halved and sliced
    * 2 cloves garlic, minced
    * 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    * 1 teaspoon chile powder
    * 1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles
    * 2 tablespoons lime juice
    * 4 cups shredded cooked turkey or chicken
    * 1 15-ounce can pinto beans, rinsed
    * 6 10-inch whole-wheat flour tortillas or wraps, warmed (see Tip)
    * 3/4 cup grated Monterey or pepper Jack cheese
    * 2 cups shredded green cabbage


    Preparation:
    1
    Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic, cumin and chile powder and cook for 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and lime juice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the onions are very soft, 16 to 20 minutes. Stir in turkey (or chicken) and beans and continue cooking until the mixture is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes more. Divide the turkey-bean mixture among tortillas (or wraps). Top each with cheese and cabbage, roll into burritos and serve.
