Wraps are one of THE best food inventions ever, in my opinion. Convenient for a busy office person, an overwhelmed mom and a lazy food maker (I happen to fit into all 3 of these categories, if you can count my home office!), wraps are where it is at.
The fact that you can pick them up makes it so fun and brings us back to our childhood memories of eating more things with our hands. And if you can pack the insides with filling, delicious nutrition, like in my new Gluten Free Zucchini Veggie Wrap Recipe, then you have a real winner.
Filled with greens from the zucchini and spinach and the easily digestible protein from the mushrooms, this gluten free wrap will having you feeling satisfied and loving life!
Zucchini and Your Heart!
Our beautiful Earth has a bountiful mix of greens to choose from, like; kale, chard, romaine, mustard greens, mâche, mixed greens, arugula, collard greens, and of course, zucchini and spinach, to name just a few!
Greens are amongst the most balancing of all foods because they are packed with nutrients to support health across your entire body and being.

Sometimes we forget about zucchini because it’s not leafy. So we might scoff, “Eh, zucchini. Whatevs!”. But zucchini is extremely high in water, fiber and minerals, and low in calories (learn more about how I feel about counting calories), and has a mild taste that works great in numerous recipes.
So check out your new bestie zucchini here in this recipe! 🙂
Prepare ingredients.
Turn the grill plate on to medium high heat to preheat and add your coconut oil to grill, spreading to cover entire area (if you don’t have a grill plate you can just do in your oven; it will be slightly different but still delish).
Season both sides of the sliced zucchini and cremini mushrooms and add to grill.
Grill quickly for 2-3 minutes per side.
Warm wrap gently in a pan for 1-2 minutes per side to soften and top with spicy mustard and sliced basil.
Top with grilled vegetables and ½ of the spinach.
Roll and serve immediately.

Every time you “mess up”, food-wise or in a relationship or whatever, find the lesson. If you see it as a gift in helping you to grow, then we can see that all of life is about growth, and there is no reason to hold on to guilt or shame. Move on and expand in love! xo
Hey Kimberly,
I tried this recipe and it is really great. I especially liked the combination of mustard and basil. After a long period of eating only veggies with rice I was really longing for such a change. This recipe was right on time for me and I spontaneously prepared it. It was so fast, this is really perfect after a stressful day.
However, I could not find the brown rice wraps in the supermarket so I had to use wheat wraps (maybe German supermarkets don’t have them…). But still it was very tasty. Please more recipes like this 😀

Thanks so much Katharina for giving this recipe a try and happy to hear you liked it. I realize it’s hard to find some of the ingredients overseas. You may want to try ordering a few packages of “Taste for Life” Gluten Free tortillas from Amazon: http://amzn.to/2lqOMHk and stock them in your freezer for whenever you need one. Keep up the great work. Lots of love! 😉
