Prep Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

1 tsp olive oil
2 red onions
3 garlic cloves, crushed
3 peppers, deseeded and chopped
80g pine nuts
350g passata
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 small bunch basil leaves, picked from the stem
Salt and pepper
2 low calorie tortilla wraps
140g ricotta cheese
1 tbsp capers

1. Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the sliced red onions, garlic, peppers and pine nuts. Cook out on a medium to low heat for 10 minutes. Add the passata, balsamic vinegar, basil and salt and pepper, and leave to cook for another 35 minutes. Remove from the heat, adjust the seasoning as required and allow to cool.

2. On a chopping board, lay out the wraps and spoon the peperonata into the middle, topping with the ricotta and the capers. Fold the wrap (making sure to tuck in the sides), and place in a pan on medium heat to toast on both sides. Cut in half and serve.
