Ingredients
Wraps
- 4 low-carb wraps
- 3/4 cup shredded lettuce
- 12 bacon strips, cooked until crispy and crumbled
Tomato Marinade
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- Salt to taste
- 3 large beefsteak tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil (preferably extra virgin)
- Black pepper to taste, freshly ground
Secret Sauce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise (Hellmann’s recommended)
Instructions
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon strips until they are crispy. Remove them from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Once cool, crumble the bacon into smaller pieces.
- Prepare the Tomato Marinade: While the bacon cooks, slice the beefsteak tomatoes thinly. Place the tomato slices in a large dish, then add olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Gently turn and brush each tomato slice with the marinade to evenly coat them with the flavors.
- Assemble the Secret Sauce: In a small bowl, use the mayonnaise as is or mix in additional seasonings if desired (such as a pinch of pepper or garlic powder) to enhance flavor. Keep this sauce chilled until ready to use.
- Build the Wraps: Lay out each low-carb wrap on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the secret sauce over each wrap. Next, add shredded lettuce evenly, followed by marinated tomato slices and crispy crumbled bacon.
- Wrap and Serve: Carefully roll each wrap tightly to enclose the fillings. Secure with a toothpick if necessary. Serve immediately for best freshness and flavor.
Notes
- For extra flavor, lightly toast the wraps before assembling for added texture.
- Use turkey bacon or vegetarian bacon as a substitute for a leaner or vegetarian option.
- If unavailable, substitute red wine vinegar with apple cider vinegar.
- Adjust the amount of mayonnaise in the secret sauce to your preference or swap for low-fat mayo to reduce calories.
- Marinate the tomatoes for at least 10 minutes to fully absorb the flavors.
