Gourmet BLT Wraps with Secret Sauce Recipe

Introduction

These Gourmet BLT Wraps with Secret Sauce elevate the classic bacon, lettuce, and tomato combo into a fresh and flavorful meal. With crispy bacon, marinated tomatoes, and a zesty flavored mayo, this wrap is perfect for a quick lunch or light dinner.

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 crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2. Step 2: While bacon cooks, slice tomatoes lengthwise and place in a large dish. Add olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Gently turn tomato slices to coat evenly with the marinade.
3. Step 3: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of the tomato marinade (olive oil, vinegar, and tomato juices). Stir until well combined to create the flavored mayo.
4. Step 4: Lay a wrap flat and spread 1 tablespoon of the flavored mayo evenly. Layer with lettuce, 3 strips of bacon, and 3 slices of marinated tomato.
5. Step 5: Roll the wrap tightly, cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

• Use whole leaves of romaine or butter lettuce for a crunchier texture.
• Swap bacon for turkey bacon or grilled chicken strips for a leaner option.
• Add sliced avocado or a few drops of hot sauce for an extra layer of flavor.

Storage

Assemble the wraps just before serving for best texture. If you must store, keep the components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat bacon briefly in a skillet and assemble fresh. Wraps with mayo tend to get soggy if stored assembled.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I prepare the tomato marinade in advance?

Yes, you can marinate the tomatoes up to 4 hours ahead for deeper flavor. Keep them refrigerated until ready to use.

What if I don’t have low-carb wraps?

Regular flour or whole wheat wraps work perfectly fine. Choose your preferred type based on dietary needs and taste.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Main Ingredients

• 4 low-carb wraps
• 3 large beefsteak tomatoes, cut into thick slices
• 12 strips of bacon
• 3/4 cup shredded lettuce (or whole leaves)

Marinade and Sauce

• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon strips until they become crispy. Once cooked to your preferred crispiness, remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2. Prepare the Tomato Marinade: While the bacon cooks, slice the tomatoes lengthwise in thick halves. Place the tomato slices in a large dish and drizzle with olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Gently turn the slices to ensure even coating and allow the flavors to infuse.
3. Make the Flavored Mayo: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with one tablespoon of the reserved tomato marinade (including olive oil, red wine vinegar, and tomato juices). Stir thoroughly to create a delicious, flavored mayo sauce.
4. Assemble the Wrap: Lay each low-carb wrap flat on a plate. Spread approximately one tablespoon of the flavored mayo evenly over the surface of each wrap. Add a layer of shredded or whole lettuce, followed by three crispy bacon strips and three slices of the marinated tomatoes.
5. Roll and Serve: Carefully roll up the wrap tightly to encase the fillings. Optionally, cut the wrap in half for easier handling. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh and savory flavors of this gourmet BLT wrap.

Notes

• Use thick-cut beefsteak tomatoes for the best flavor and texture balance.
• Adjust bacon crispiness to your preference; thicker bacon will need longer cooking times.
• The tomato marinade also enhances the flavor and moisture of the tomatoes, making the wrap more succulent.
• Low-carb wraps keep this meal lighter but can be substituted with regular wraps or tortillas if desired.
• Consume immediately to enjoy the bacon’s crispiness and the freshness of the ingredients.
