Rice and Bean Rollups

Brian loved these roll ups.  They taste very fresh, but are quite filling as well.

1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice, cooked in salt water
1 cup firm cooked pinto beans, cooked in salt water
1 large tomato, finely chopped
1/2 red pepper, finely chopped
1 avocado, diced
1 cucumber, seeded and finely chopped
1 cup nut mayonnaise
4-8 Leaves greenleaf lettuce
4 to 6 tortillas, depending on size

Warm the tortillas in a preheated oven.  Place all ingredients except lettuce and tortillas in a bowl.  Mix to coat with mayo.  Spread a layer of mixture over each tortilla (I used a large Indian flatbread, cut in half) then top with lettuce leaves.  Roll up the tortillas and serve.  Makes about 4 servings.  If your rice and beans are not salted, you may wish to add some salt and pepper.
