Ingredients

  • 4 low-carb wraps
  • 3 large beefsteak tomatoes (cut into thick slices)
  • 12 bacon strips
  • 3/4 cup lettuce, shredded (whole leaves can also be used)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (extra virgin)
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a skillet over medium heat, fry bacon slices until they are crispy. Once cooked to your liking, remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess grease.
  2. Step 2: While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomatoes into thick halves lengthwise. Place the tomato slices into a large dish and add olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Gently turn the slices to coat them evenly with the mixture.
  3. Step 3: In a small dish, combine the mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of the tomato basting mixture (olive oil, vinegar, and tomato juices). Stir until well blended to create the flavored mayo.
  4. Step 4: Lay a low-carb wrap flat on a plate. Spread 1 tablespoon of the flavored mayo evenly across the wrap. Layer shredded lettuce or whole leaves on top, then add 3 strips of crispy bacon and 3 slices of the marinated tomatoes.
  5. Step 5: Carefully roll the wrap to enclose all the ingredients snugly. Cut in half if desired and serve immediately for a fresh and delicious meal.

Tips & Variations

  • Use turkey bacon for a lighter option without sacrificing flavor.
  • Try adding avocado slices for extra creaminess.
  • Swap red wine vinegar with balsamic vinegar for a slightly sweeter marinade.
  • Warm the wraps briefly before assembling to make rolling easier.

Storage

Assemble the wraps fresh for the best texture, but you can store cooked bacon, marinated tomatoes, and flavored mayo separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the bacon gently in a skillet or microwave before assembling. Do not store wrapped sandwiches as the wraps may become soggy.

How to Serve

Three rolled burritos sit closely side by side on a white plate with a thin brown rim. Each burrito has a golden-brown toasted flour tortilla with darker char spots. Inside, visible layers include crispy reddish-brown bacon pieces, shredded pale yellow cheese, bright red tomato slices, and light green shredded lettuce. On the side of the plate, there is a fresh pile of leafy green lettuce with a mix of bright and darker green shades, providing a fresh contrast. The scene is set on a white marbled surface with soft natural light highlighting the textures. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other types of bread instead of low-carb wraps?

Yes, regular flour tortillas, whole wheat wraps, or even large lettuce leaves work well if you prefer different options.

How do I keep the wrap from getting soggy?

To prevent sogginess, assemble the wrap just before eating. Alternatively, keep wet ingredients like tomatoes and mayo separate until serving.

Tomato Marinade

  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Notes

  • Use thick slices of beefsteak tomatoes for the best texture and flavor.
  • Marinating tomatoes enhances their flavor and adds juiciness to the wrap.
  • For crispier bacon, consider baking the bacon strips on a wire rack in the oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes.
  • Low-carb wraps are used to keep this recipe lighter but you can substitute with your favorite tortilla or flatbread.
  • The flavored mayo can be prepared in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Serve immediately after assembling to enjoy the crispness of the bacon and the freshness of the vegetables.
