BLT Wrap with Avocado


How about a quick & easy, portable lunch recipe?? This recipe is so simple that I really shouldn’t even call it a recipe. We just kind of throw it together for a light lunch. The SAD (Standard American Diet) includes lots of bacon. This is just a slight modification to the traditional BLT sandwich that we all love. The exception is this version doesn’t have bread, butter, mayo, etc. You can eat more of it without the guilt! Throw your wrap items into Ziploc bags and put it in a lunchbox. Assemble wrap when you are ready to eat and you are good to go! We like taking this on quick picnics. This makes four servings (two wraps per person).

4 slices organic turkey bacon
8 small leaves of romaine lettuce
1 large tomato, thinly sliced
1 avocado, thinly sliced
Ranch dressing, if desired
Shredded cheese, if desired
  • In a large skillet, cook turkey bacon until crisp. Let cool and cut each slice in half to make 8 slices.
  • In a lettuce leaf, place one half slice of bacon, tomato and avocado.
  • If desired, drizzle on some ranch dressing and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  •  It is best if served immediately, but if you refrigerate your wrap items separately, they will keep for later assembling.
