Ingredients
Wraps
- 4 low-carb wraps
- 3/4 cup shredded lettuce
- 12 bacon strips (cooked until crispy and crumbled)
Tomato Marinade
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- Salt to taste
- 3 large beefsteak tomatoes (thinly sliced)
- 1/4 cup olive oil (Pompeian extra virgin olive oil recommended)
- Black pepper to taste (freshly ground preferred)
Secret Sauce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise (Hellmann’s mayonnaise preferred)
- 1 tbsp tomato basting mixture (olive oil, red wine vinegar, tomato juices from marinade)
Instructions
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, fry bacon slices until crispy. Remove the cooked bacon and place on paper towels to drain excess grease.
- Prepare the Tomato Marinade: Slice tomatoes thinly and place 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.
- Make the Flavored Mayo: In a small dish, combine mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of the tomato basting mixture drained from the marinade. Stir well until fully blended to create a flavorful sauce.
- Assemble the Wrap: Lay a low-carb wrap flat and smear 1 tablespoon of the flavored mayo evenly across the surface. Layer shredded lettuce, 3 crispy bacon strips, and 3 slices of the marinated tomatoes on top.
- Roll and Serve: Carefully roll the wrap to enclose the ingredients snugly. Optionally, cut the wrap in half and serve immediately for a fresh, delicious meal.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, cook bacon in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
- Use freshly ground black pepper for best flavor in the tomato marinade.
- Marinate the tomatoes for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to blend thoroughly.
- The flavored mayo can be adjusted to taste by varying the amount of tomato basting mixture.
- Wraps are best served immediately to maintain freshness and crispness.
- To keep wraps moist, avoid overfilling and roll tightly.
