While it still is good, it’s just not as nice as a soft and pliable wrap that sandwich wraps are associated with. If you warm up the Agave Grain Sandwich Petal and don’t build and consume your wrap immediately, leave it within the damp paper towel…or your wrap does stiffen up and harden back up a little. ![]() While not off-putting, it was just…different. This one, as I found out this morning when I paired this wrap instead with a banana, some melted peanut butter, and a bit of gluten-free chocolate chip granola, worked best as a dessert base, or wrap for something with a bit more sweetness. A little bit of sweetness is fine, but this was an odd sweetness that just didn’t work in tandem with the rest of the insides. Which…was weird when paired with the vegetables. The Gluten Free Agave Grain Sandwich Petals were actually sweet. And that’s exactly how it was for the past two nights. Do not attempt to actually be able to roll these up into a wrap if you do fill it like an actual wrap should be filled. I warmed mine up, gave each petal a schmear of sun-dried tomato hummus, then packed it with kale, spinach, greens, yellow peppers, sliced onion, carrots, and a bit of avocado. Enough that you can roll them up and make them functional to say the least. But when you warm them up in the damp paper towel, they do get slightly more pliable and flexible. When you first take the petals out of the resealable package, they are rather stiff and stale feeling. Just prep your filling, and then wrap a single Gluten Free Agave Grain Sandwich Petal in damp paper towels. Regardless, they are oblong, narrower at the top and slightly wider around the middle. Sandwich Petals are aptly named because, well, they are shaped like a flower petal. Sandwich Petals Gluten Free Agave Grain Flatbread This time…as I was making a simple vegetable wrap for dinner, I opted for the “original” version…the Agave Grain flavor of Sandwich Petals. The Spinach Garlic flavor was the first to disappear. So, all three flavors were purchased and made the journey home. These reminded me so much (in shape and feel) of the Flat-Out Sandwich Wraps I had given up…that I had to have them. And this time, this something was – SANDWICH PETALS! In three flavors, even. But, alas…when I’m not looking is when I find something. After all, these had to make the journey back to Indiana with me. I wasn’t planning on shopping for food items. ![]() It was sad for this gluten-free foodie, for sure.īut then, I took a journey to Boulder, Colorado and just happened to be killing time on a Sunday morning, waiting for some stores to open, perusing the aisles of a local natural food store. But, they just weren’t the same as my Flat-Out Sandwich Wraps from my past. Since then, however, a few companies, including Rudi’s Gluten-Free and Udi’s Gluten-Free have released tortillas and wraps that make great substitutes. When I narrowed that down to a few different brands to choose from (since one would usually be on sale at some point at one of the 9 stores I would visit)…I resigned myself that if I wanted anything apart from regular sandwiches…I’d have to use gluten-free corn tortillas. But, when I was diagnosed as a Celiac, at first I refused to spend an ungodly amount of money on sandwich bread…and when I finally decided I couldn’t live my life without sandwiches…I had to find a good one to use. Ah, the days of making sandwiches and pizzas and other things using Flat-Out Sandwich Wraps. And one of the best options out on the market were these low-calorie wraps called…Sandwich Thins. Very, very bad things.īack before my initial diagnosis, however, I had found a new love for making wraps. No cheating allowed or bad things happen. For some, gluten-free isn’t just a dietary choice, it is a necessity. The problem is…not only is a good and delicious gluten free sandwich bread sometimes hard to come by…so is an alternative. Sometimes…the world is made for more than just gluten-free sandwich bread. Product: Sandwich Petals Gluten Free Agave Grain Flatbread – $3.99+ ![]() ![]()
