VEGAN QUESO: Place cashews and carrot in medium saucepan; add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until carrot is tender, 8 to 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to a blender container. Add milk, cold water, nutritional yeast and cornstarch. Blend until smooth.
Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds. Pour in cashew puree, salt and paprika. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in tomato, jalapeno, cilantro and lime juice.
BURGERS: Cook black bean burgers according to package directions. Spread vegan queso in the center of each tortilla and top with a cooked burger. Fold over edge of each tortilla to completely enclose ingredients in center, pleating edge of tortilla as necessary. Brush oil evenly onto both sides of tortilla wraps.
Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place one black bean tortilla burger wrap in skillet, folded side down and cook until golden, about 3 minutes. Carefully turn and cook on second side until golden, about a minute. Repeat with second burger wrap. Serve with extra queso for dipping and enjoy!
