Canadian Cheese and Black-Eyed Pea Supper Wraps

Every week I make this dish. My family loves it. You can use any vegetables you have in the fridge but I have included specific ones here. The best way to serve this meal is to get every person in the family to help themselves. I line up every recipe item in individual bowls and invite everyone to make their own wrap. It's more fun! It's also a great way to use up leftovers. This tasty recipe is a favorite among the Erlics. My son's girlfriend loves this dish too! She is always over when I make it.
