Cook Time: 5 mins
Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1 low-carb tortilla
- 2 slices of bacon, cooked
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 1 cup mixed greens
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
- Begin by cooking the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp and golden brown. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease and let cool slightly.
- While the bacon is cooking, prepare your other ingredients. Slice the avocado into thin, even strips and halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Warm the low-carb tortilla briefly in a clean skillet or microwave for 10-15 seconds to make it more pliable and prevent cracking.
- Lay the warmed tortilla flat on a clean cutting board or plate.
- Spread the mixed greens evenly across the center of the tortilla, leaving about an inch of space from the edges.
- Arrange the sliced avocado on top of the greens in a single, overlapping layer.
- Crumble or place the cooked bacon strips on top of the avocado.
- Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes over the bacon.
- Carefully fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up and over the filling, then fold in the sides.
- Roll the wrap tightly from the bottom up, ensuring the filling stays compact and secure.
- Optional: If desired, slice the wrap diagonally and serve immediately.
Tips
- Bacon Perfection: Cook bacon on medium heat to ensure even crispiness without burning. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess grease and maintain the wrap's structural integrity.
- Tortilla Technique: Briefly warming the low-carb tortilla makes it more flexible and prevents annoying cracks when rolling. Just 10-15 seconds in a skillet or microwave does the trick!
- Layering is Key: Start with greens as a base, then strategically layer avocado, bacon, and tomatoes to ensure every bite is packed with flavor and texture.
- Rolling Pro Tip: Fold the bottom up first, then the sides, and roll tightly from the bottom to create a neat, compact wrap that won't fall apart.
- Serve Immediately: For the best taste and texture, enjoy your wrap right after preparation to keep the tortilla crisp and ingredients fresh.
