This low-carb take on the classic BLT sandwich offers a delightful crunch and a burst of flavors in every bite.

Ingredients:

4 strips bacon
50g
1 tomato
120g
1 tbsp mayonnaise salad dressing
16g
3 leafs lettuce
50g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the bacon:
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the 4 strips of bacon until they are crispy and golden brown. This should take about 5-7 minutes, but keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Drain the Bacon: Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess grease. Let it cool slightly.
2. Prepare the tomato:
- Slice the Tomato: While the bacon is cooling, wash the tomato thoroughly. Cut it into thin slices.
3. Prepare the lettuce leaves:
- Wash the Lettuce: Rinse the 3 large lettuce leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
4. Assemble the wraps:
- Spread the Mayonnaise: Lay out the dry lettuce leaves on a flat surface, such as a cutting board or plate. Evenly spread about 1/3 of the tablespoon of mayonnaise salad dressing on each leaf.
- Layer the Ingredients: Place the tomato slices on top of the mayonnaise-covered lettuce leaves.
- Add the Bacon: Break each strip of bacon in half, and place the bacon pieces on top of the tomato slices.
5. Season and Serve:
- Season: Lightly sprinkle a dash of black pepper over each wrap for added flavor.
- Wrap and Enjoy: Fold the lettuce leaves around the fillings to create wraps, securing them with toothpicks if needed, and serve immediately.

Tips:

- Cook the bacon until it's crispy for the best texture contrast with the fresh vegetables.

- Use ripe, firm tomatoes to avoid sogginess in your wraps.

- Consider using different types of lettuce, such as romaine or butter lettuce, to find your preferred texture and flavor.

- For additional flavor, try adding a splash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of your favorite seasoning.

- Ensure the lettuce leaves are dry before assembling the wraps to keep them fresh and crisp.

In just a few simple steps, you can create delicious BLT Lettuce Wraps that are healthy, flavorful, and satisfying. These wraps are perfect for those looking to enjoy all the elements of a classic BLT without the extra carbs. Enjoy them as a meal or a tasty snack, and savor the delightful combination of bacon, lettuce, and tomato.
