Main Ingredients
- 2 soft flour or whole wheat tortilla wraps
- 4 crispy bacon strips
- 1 cup fresh romaine lettuce leaves, washed and dried
- 1 medium ripe red tomato, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or aioli
- Optional: 1/2 avocado, sliced
- Cook the Bacon: Fry the bacon strips on medium heat until crispy. Remove and place them on paper towels to drain excess grease and cool slightly.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and thoroughly dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Slice the tomatoes into thin, even rounds to maintain juiciness without sogginess.
- Assemble the Wrap: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous, even layer of mayonnaise or aioli across the tortilla. Next, layer the lettuce leaves, followed by the tomato slices, and then the crispy bacon strips. Add sliced avocado if using.
- Roll it Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then tightly roll it from one end to the other to secure the ingredients and create a neat wrap.
- Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to cut the wrap diagonally in half, revealing the colorful layers inside. Serve immediately or wrap for later consumption.
Notes
- Keep lettuce and tomatoes dry to prevent sogginess.
- Warm tortillas slightly before assembling to make rolling easier and prevent cracking.
- Use thick-cut bacon for better texture and chewiness.
- Spread sauces evenly to avoid overpowering flavors.
- Wrap tightly to keep ingredients secure while eating.
