A close-up image of a wrap sandwich shows four visible layers inside a golden-brown toasted tortilla. The outermost layer is a soft, slightly crispy yellow-brown wrap, folded tightly around the filling. Inside, starting from the top, there is a thick spread of creamy white sauce with small green herb pieces, followed by a layer of crispy, reddish-brown bacon strips. Below the bacon, there is fresh green lettuce with leafy texture, and beneath that, a hint of bright red tomato slices peeks through. The wrap sits on a simple white plate with a smooth, clean finish, all placed against a white marbled texture surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 4 low-carb wraps
  • 3/4 cup shredded lettuce
  • 12 bacon strips (cooked until crispy and crumbled)
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • 3 large beefsteak tomatoes (thinly sliced)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Black pepper to taste (freshly ground recommended)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  2. Step 2: While the bacon cooks, slice the tomatoes thinly and place them in a large dish. Add olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Gently turn the tomato slices to coat them evenly with the marinade.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of the tomato marinade liquid (olive oil, vinegar, and tomato juices). Stir until blended to create the secret sauce.
  4. Step 4: Lay a wrap flat on a plate. Spread 1 tablespoon of the flavored mayo evenly over the surface. Add a layer of shredded lettuce, 3 strips of crispy bacon, and 3 slices of the marinated tomatoes on top.
  5. Step 5: Roll the wrap carefully to enclose all ingredients. Cut in half if desired and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • Use turkey bacon or plant-based bacon alternatives for a leaner or vegetarian-friendly wrap.
  • Try adding avocado slices for extra creaminess and nutrition.
  • Warm the wraps slightly before assembling for easier rolling and enhanced flavor.
  • Substitute red wine vinegar with balsamic vinegar for a sweeter marinade.

Storage

Assemble the wraps just before serving to maintain freshness and prevent sogginess. If you need to store leftovers, keep the components separate: refrigerated bacon, tomato marinade, and wraps in airtight containers for up to 2 days. Reheat the bacon slightly before assembling, and enjoy immediately after plating.

How to Serve

Two wrap halves sit side by side on a white plate over a wooden table with a white marbled background. Each wrap has a toasted, golden-brown outer layer with grill marks, enclosing layers of crisp, green lettuce near the opening, followed by slices of red tomato, fried crispy brown bacon pieces, and a creamy white sauce visible near the bottom inside. The wraps are cut to show the cross-section of these layers densely packed inside. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I prepare these wraps ahead of time?

It’s best to prepare the ingredients ahead but assemble the wraps just before eating. This prevents the wrap from becoming soggy and keeps the textures fresh.

What can I use instead of low-carb wraps?

You can use any type of tortilla or flatbread you prefer, such as whole wheat, spinach, or gluten-free wraps based on your dietary needs.
