Tonight Mr BBB and I are heading out with some friends for dinner. Actually, when I look at our calendar for February, I can’t help but notice that we seem to be filling it with quite a few dinners and catch-ups with various friends. Making the most of “couple time” before baby BBB arrives perhaps? So let me share with you what one of my favourite lunches has been recently (aka. my attempt to stop buying lunch at work so often). 
Bean and salad GF wraps. Made all the more tasty by homemade bean spread. 
Cannellini beans, parsley, tahini, lemon juice, almonds and salt. 
Processed until smooth and voila. 
A tasty healthy bean spread (or dip….) I have been using this spread as a base for my lunch wraps. 
Coupled with avocado… 
Salad… 
More salad and cheese… 
Wrapped and rolled… and ready to pack to take to work! 
The bean spread – with the creamy tahini, fresh herbs and hint of citrus, adds quite a bit of flavour to these wraps. 
Not to mention packing lunch itself helped out my wallet …. 
Gotta love a colourful pretty lunch! What about you? Do you take your lunch to work? I find myself buying lunch most work days recently, although I always enjoy a homemade lunch when I remember to bring it.
Hey!
What GF wraps do you find "wrap" better without splitting? I never seem to have any luck with keeping my wraps together.
Thanks
Amanda
Ugh so many of them fall apart don't they!
I use the ones from Old Time Bakery (http://www.oldtimebakery.com.au/gluten-free-wraps.php)
I was about to ask the same question, then read this comment 🙂
There are only two types I have been able to find and they either don't bend at all, or split.
Thanks. Now I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow :-). I was trying to remember if I used to take lunch when I worked (which is over 10 years ago now) and I can't remember. I know I craved McDonald's when I was pregnant and had that a few times I week – hard to believe now I'm vegetarian and very rarely have takeaway!
I have honestly never thought of converting my wraps with beans in them to wraps with bean spread. Clearly I have no imagination. Clearly you do! These look really good 🙂
I love processed beans, they go with everything. That wrap looks so delicious. They cost a fortune to buy!
looks lovely – but I am wary of prepacking any sandwiches with tomato – because I worry they will be soggy – though dips help! I try to take lunch – soup is my favourite and easiest – on lazy days when I take lunch it is a cheese sandwich and a tin of baked beans
I love baked beans!
Oh, that bean spread does sound mighty tasty!! i tend to bring leftovers for lunch, hate buying it out!
That looks absolutely delicious!!!! Yum! I always bring my lunch to work. I only eat out maybe 3x a year max.
I am very impressed! I need to do it more!
That looks fabulous! I love the bean spread. Something I definitely want to do. We usually eat leftovers or sometimes we have lunch meeting so we grab soup at the local cafe.
Such a beautiful wrap and I heart avocado! When I worked, I used to bring breakfast and lunch. It's such an easy way to save money.
Ooh I make something really similar and Mr NQN loves the bean dip! I have to pull it away from him! 😛
Oh yum, I'd be eating that dip/spread by the spoonful!
I love this idea! I constantly run out of ideas for lunches and am looking for something new. Sounds great!
I always bring lunch to work!! I allow myself to eat out once a week, but other than that I'm a bringer.
Love the bean spread recipe–I might use it this weekend for the Superbowl!
Have a great weekend!
That looks simple and awesome!
This looks great, will definitely have to try it 🙂
