To a bowl, add the soy veggie ground and spice mix and stir to combine.
Take a wrap, and top it with a heaping ⅓ cup of refried beans, spreading it out over half the wrap. Sprinkle overtop of this about a ¼ cup of the soy veggie ground mix.
Continue to add to the wraps the remaining ingredients, to your liking: bell pepper, scallions, corn, cilantro, olives, and jalapeños.
Fold in each side of the wrap, then roll, starting from the closest edge, until the wrap is closed. Place seam-side down on a baking tray.
Repeat with the remaining wraps.
Bake in the oven on the centre rack for , until the wraps are lightly golden. If after they are not golden enough to your liking, turn on the broiler and grill them for a minute. Keep your eye on it so it doesn't burn in that time.

Top with desired garnishes like salsa, guacamole, avocado slices, or hot sauce. Enjoy!
