Recipe: Black bean, corn and cheese wraps ! And Corn muffins!

I have been trying to find new and exciting foods that incorporate Clark's favorite things.
One favorite food is corn and the other is cheese. Today I made
Black bean , corn and cheese wraps!  
I purchased Trader Joe's whole wheat  10-inch flour tortillas1/4 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup canned corn niblets, drained and rinsed
2 Tbsp. grated cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp. tomato salsa. In a small bowl, combine the beans, corn, cheddar and salsa, stirring to combine.
Place filling into the centre of the tortilla. Then roll it up, burrito-style with ends closed, to encase the filling.
 Toast, seam side down, in a non-stick pan over medium heat until golden brown. Repeat on other side




For a side treat, I made Corn, cheese, scallion and zucchini muffins!
Recipe:
Your favorite boxed cornbread/muffin mix or recipe (one that makes an 9-inch pan or so), I used Trader Joes Corn muffin/ bread mix.
1/2 cup grated fresh zucchini
1/2 cup canned corn, drained
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Prepare the cornbread following the box instructions. Add the zucchini, corn and cheddar cheese to the dry ingredients before mixing in the wet. Continue on with the recipe as printed, baking accordingly.Trader Joes cooks at 350 for 30 minutes!
Yummy and healthy treats for me and the chunk today!!! Including foods that Clark likes into many different recipes that include spices, onions, peppers and such will allow him to try new foods and spices that he might grow up to like:)
