Here are the topics I’ve covered in this series of lunchboxes: Reusable Lunchbox Wares, Sweet GF Wrap Ideas, Packing a Balanced Lunchbox, Stocking Up w/ an Oatmeal Snack Cookie, Lunch on a Stick, GF DF Dips & Spreads for a Lunchbox, 10 GF Wrap Ideas, Making Use of Leftovers, Muffins & Waffles for a Lunchbox?!, Top Foods for a Healthy Lunchbox,
Don’t think wraps always have to be savory! Think fruit! Here are some fun wrap ideas that will get your kiddos (and come on admit it, YOU too!) excited about lunch time. For sweet wraps, I recommend a neutral tasting flour tortilla (like the one I shared with you yesterday and pictured below!) either store bought or homemade!
- PBB&J – Favorite nut butter, banana, and jelly, honey or raisins
- Strawberries & Cream (courtesy of The Nourishing Home wrap post) – Allowed cream cheese, honey, sliced fresh strawberry
- Creamy Fruit Goodness:cashew cream, cinnamon, and sliced seasonal fresh fruit
- Apple Peanut Butter: Either fresh or sauteed apple slices, favorite nut or seed butter
- Tropical: Toss together your favorite vanilla yogurt, diced mango, toasted coconut or coconut butter, and maybe some roasted chopped nuts for added crunch.
What sweet ideas do you have? I have roasted butternut squash or sweet potato one mulling around in my mind! And my Homemade Hazelnut-Chocolate spread would be good with just about ANY sweet wrap!

When her third child was born with severe food allergies, Tessa took to the kitchen to figure out how to feed her family well. Always up for a culinary challenge, their journey has taken many twists and turns! Lots of Paleo, and lots of top 8 free. Good food for families, that's what she's about!
I never think about sweet wraps…thanks for the ideas!
Only one thing to say about those — YUM!
Thanks for the post!
Yummy.
Tessa, what a BEAUTIFUL and HELPFUL blog you have. Thank you so much for the shout out. So glad we can be real foodie friends! Blessings, Kelly
Why thank you Kelly! It’s nice to have a like-minded community!
I may have to try making the tortillas, just so I can make one of those wraps! Strawberries and cream sounds fantastic.
Great idea for the sweet wraps!
With strawberries in season right now this sounds like a wonderful treat. Thank you.
I love this idea, Tessa! Crepes could also be used for a dessert wrap (sorry I don’t have a recipe). I think I’m going to try a strawberry and banana wrap today since I have some Rudi’s tortillas. You are doing a terrific job with lunch ideas. Thanks so much for covering this topic.
Crepes would be good too, you’re right Linda! Thanks for the compliment!
My son actually prefers the sweet wraps, so I’m definitely one for today’s tips.
Yummy, what a great idea Tessa. I once made a dessert pizza (holy awesome), and that’s what these remind me of. I love making a tortilla with nut butter, pumpkin and hemp seeds, and dates. One of my fave treats
Thanks for linking to my sweet cashew cream.
what a great dessert idea, thanks
I am thinking of warm tortilla smeared with some home made almond butter, Greek yogurt, bananas, maple syrup, and a little cinnamon or nutmeg. Thanks for the inspiration!
I had never thought of a sweet arap before. What a great idea !
oooh yum! i have to eat gluten free before i run or else my stomach is NOT happy haha
I can’t wait to try these wraps either savory or sweet!
