I’m so not a lunch person. I live for breakfast, and dinner options are endless, but when it comes to lunch…it’s rather drab. BUT, why don’t we make lunch “cool” again? I know I’m not the only one who wishes for a little something to “spring up” that midday slump at work, school, heck, even at home! I’m always hearing from ya’ll that you want more lunch ideas. That’s the meal that everyone (at some point or another in their lives) gets stuck on.Read More

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 incorporate 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 2/3 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!

Serving Size: 1

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!
