No more boring lunches! These Grilled Green Goddess Wraps are full of green goodness and nutrition with a lima bean spread, broccoli, and hearts of palm! Gluten-free, nut-free, and vegan, these wraps are a healthy recipe that's school or work friendly and freezable!
Let's get wrapping and knock those sad lunch sandwiches out of the park!
No longer will you have to figure out something hearty, delicious, and o so not boring to bring to lunch, at your desk, school, etc. I have the best solution to make all your peers and coworkers jealous!
I had been wanting to make some wraps as I finally got my hands on the AMAZING BFree Foods gluten-free, vegan, and soy-free bread products! Notably their killer wraps. They needed some recipe love and spotlight time on the blog. Then I got the BIGGEST (random) craving for lima beans! We used to eat lima beans on the reg, while I was growing up. One of my and my brother's favorite food (with those fish sticks...). For some reason I haven't had them in such a long time, I couldn't even remember! A tragedy!
With my craving for lima beans ignited, I knew exactly how I would incorporateΒ the little green legume. They have so much flavor and are so distinct; a flavorful spread/hummus/pesto for my wraps seemed like the perfect idea! Keeping with a green theme, I decided to go "green goddess". My lima bean spread + broccoli + hearts of palm for a creamy "sultry" bite. And of course, since this is the season of all things grilled, grilling these wraps was obligatory!
You start with the wrap and the spread on β of the wrap. Then layer on some raw sliced broccoli and sliced whole hearts of palm. Then you fold it up like a burrito, place it on a grill pan (mine is getting so much use lately!), grill for just a few minutes on each side to seal it and make the raw broccoli tender and spread creamy. Then devour right then, or you can even wrap them in foil and freeze or save them in the fridge for later! Perfect for school, work, and anytime you're in a lunch-rut!
I wrote this recipe to make only 2 wraps, but it can so easily be doubled for 4 or tripled! Which, believe me, after you taste your first one, you'll want one every day! Now, 1, 2, 3, let's get WRAPPING!

So creamy, so grilled(?), so delicious! The meaty hearts of palm, tender and slightly crunchy broccoli, plus that noochy lima bean spread all tucked into that grilled wrap is indescribable! I may of may not have dipped mine in ketchup (don't judge!) Dipping them in some of my homemade green goddess sauce would be a stellar idea too! Anyway you do it, I hope you enjoy them; I know I did! Now I can't stop the love for lima beans (I've been stocking up on frozen bags every week and the grocery now!)
So tell me:
+ Are you a lima bean fan?
+ Wrap or sandwich? That depends, but wraps are pretty fun!

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
O perfect!!! Loving the LIMA love π
Nikki Frank-Hamilton
These really look tasty, but you may have lost me on the lima beans. We ate way too many of them as kids, from a can. But mixed with green goddess I just might be able to do it. Heck, I'll never say never. It's been an awful long time since I had them!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
This recipe is a far crazy from lima beans from a can. as you can see, you won't even know lima beans were used.
kimmythevegan
Ah I love GREEN things. This wrap is so pretty. I haven't had lima beans in forever, good reminder to get some and try this bad boy out. I have not seen the Free wraps anywhere! I want to try them so bad! I have found some vegan/gluten-free wraps that I like, but not that actually wrap without crumbling.
I'm pinning & sharing =)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Right!? Lima beans are so forgotten!!
These wraps are KILLER!!!! The main brand in based in UK, but they have a US portion too!
kimmythevegan
ps. love these wraps so much!
Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner
Those look great! I do some similar ones with white beans.

My family thinks it's hilarious when I say I love lima beans. I do! This looks delicious Rebecca. What kind of gluten free wraps do you use? I have a hard time finding a brand that tastes good and has a good texture.

You had me at green goddess!! Mmmmm there's nothing better than a big, fresh wrap for summertime lunches. I've never had hearts of palm. Is that like so pitiful of me or what?!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
It's a bit pitiful...but nothing we can't fix now!! You'll love them!
jules
I'm not sold on the lima beans, but I'll keep an open mind! LOL! Looks gorgeous, no matter what!

Ashley - Forking Up
I live with a hard-core meat eater, so often I miss veggie-centric meals! I need this wrap in my life...
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
I bet you can get that meat eater to enjoy this too!
Karly
Sometimes it IS kinda easy being green! At least when it's this tasty. Loving this quick lunch option!!

Farrah
Yay for Giselle! I've definitely never tried making a lima bean spread (I can't remember the last time I had em'! :O )! These wraps look awesome!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
We all need more lima beans in out lives!
Kimberly @ The Daring Gourmet
I love that lima beans are featured in these and I'm also a fan of palm hearts, yum!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
All the "forgotten" and underused veggies in these wraps!
Vicky
I've never eaten hearts of palm and we can't get lima beans in the UK, I think the nearest bean is a butter bean which would work well in this recipe I think. This wrap looks amazing, I would really like to try it.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
This is weird, but I was just watching the Food Network over the weekend and someone said lima beans were the same thing as butter beans (that's what they are called in the Southern States of the US). So maybe...your butter beans are lima beans? :O
Michelle De La Cerda
I would love the try this green goddess wrap. It looks wonderfully tasty and incredibly healthy.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Thank you so much Michelle!
Miss Polkadot
Giselle is not only a creative chef but also so honest about real life struggles on her blog. I really appreciate that.
Will you believe I've never had lima beans before? Actually, I don't think they're available over here. Your wrap looks great.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Haha, I'm pretty sure they have lima beans in Europe π
Sarah
these would make such a fabulous lunch! healthy and filling π
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Yes, yes! Everything you'd want to nourish your day!
Sarah- A Whisk and Two Wands
Green goodness! I thought it was avocado but interesting with the lima beans, will have to give it a try!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Lima beans > avocado π
Choclette
Your wraps look totally gorgeous. I haven't had lima beans for years and I'm not sure I've ever had them blitzed into a spread. I'm missing out!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Haha! Right? I forgot all about the little green legume! They are so yummy though and so "buttery" for a spread!
Shashi @ RunninSrilankan
I happene to be a huge lima bean fan and pairing it with cheesy nutritional yeast in these wraps makes me hungry for one! Thanks for introducing me to Giselle of The ExSloth, Rebecca!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Lima beans rock!
Emily
How do you make something that looks simultaneously so delicious and so good for you! Yum! Just pinned to make for later!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine

I love wraps and these look absolutely delicious! For how healthy they seem, they look filling and indulgent!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
They are definitely filling and satisfying!
Michele @ paleorunningmomma
I've yet to try nutritional yeast but I'm really curious since so many people love the flavor. The more greens the better - looks yummy!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
What!?????????
Jennifer
Yum! Wraps are great especially in the summer and grilling this is a great idea!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Right!? Ultimate summer sandwich!
tianna
not sure how I feel about the lima beans, but everything else sounds delicious! thanks for sharing π

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Green = ....HEALTH and uh WEALTH!
Ashley@CookNourishBliss
That lima bean spread sounds delicious!! What a great option for lunch (or an easy dinner!!)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Haha yes! I had it for dinner π But most people think of wraps for lunch....we should change that!
sue | theviewfromgreatisland
I love anything and everything 'green goddess', so I would definitely dip these in your homemade sauce! And I have a daughter that loathes lima beans, so I might see if I can convince her with these wraps π
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Just don't tell her! She will never know what's in that spread!
Nellwyn

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
These are a perfect option then!

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Right? Lima beans are so good but SO forgotten!
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday
