Gourmet BLT Wraps Secret (Printable)

Fresh BLT wraps with crisp lettuce, marinated tomatoes, crispy bacon, and tangy secret sauce for quick meals.

# Components:

→ Wraps

01 - 4 low-carb wraps or flour tortillas, 10-inch
02 - 3/4 cup shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce
03 - 12 strips bacon, cooked until crispy

→ Marinated Tomatoes

04 - 3 large beefsteak tomatoes, thinly sliced
05 - 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
06 - 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
07 - Salt to taste
08 - Freshly ground black pepper to taste

→ Secret Sauce

09 - 1/4 cup mayonnaise
10 - 1 tablespoon tomato marinade from marinated tomatoes

# Method:

01 - In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool completely.
02 - In a shallow dish, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Add sliced tomatoes and turn gently to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing remaining ingredients.
03 - In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon of the tomato marinade. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
04 - Warm wraps in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make pliable. Lay each wrap flat and spread approximately 1 tablespoon of secret sauce evenly over the surface. Layer with shredded lettuce, 3 strips bacon, and 3-4 slices of marinated tomato, briefly drained on paper towels. Avoid overfilling.
05 - Roll each wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you progress to secure the filling. Allow wraps to rest for 2-3 minutes to help ingredients settle. Cut diagonally in half if desired and serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • No more tomato juice running down your wrists—the wraps contain everything in one satisfying, handheld bite.
  • That secret sauce transforms what could feel like assembly into something that tastes like you've been thinking about this all day.
  • The marinated tomatoes add depth that regular slices never could, and they're ready in the time it takes to cook bacon.
02 -
  • If you skip draining the marinated tomatoes before adding them, the wraps will get soggy within minutes—a lesson I learned by eating one that felt more like tomato soup than lunch.
  • Warming the wraps makes an almost shocking difference in how they roll and hold together; cold tortillas crack and resist in ways that feel personal.
03 -
  • Make the tomato marinade while your bacon is cooking so timing feels effortless instead of chaotic—this is efficiency disguised as instinct.
  • Keep extra tomato marinade in a container; it's liquid gold for salads, grilled vegetables, or anything that needs a quick flavor boost.
