Ingredients
Scale
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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
