Ingredients
Scale
8 slices Bacon (Opt for center-cut for less fat or applewood for a smoky taste.)
4 wraps Tortilla Wraps (Warming slightly before use makes it pliable for easier rolling.)
1 head Lettuce (Iceberg or romaine are great options.)
2 large Tomatoes (Drain excess moisture after slicing to prevent sogginess.)
2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Used in the tomato marinade for flavor enhancement.)
1 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar (Adds acidity and depth to the tomato marinade.)
1 pinch Black Pepper (Enhances overall flavor profile.)
1/2 cup Mayonnaise (Combine with tomato juices for unique flavor.)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips for about 6-8 minutes or until they reach your desired crispiness. Make sure to turn them halfway through for even cooking. Once done, transfer the crispy bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
Next, slice the tomatoes in half and place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and red wine vinegar, then season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Toss the tomatoes gently to coat them, allowing them to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and one tablespoon of the marinated tomato juices to create the secret sauce. Stir until well combined.
To ensure your tortilla wraps are pliable for easy rolling, microwave them for 10-15 seconds. This helps prevent tearing as you assemble your wraps.
Spread a generous layer of the secret sauce over each warmed tortilla. Then, layer them with fresh lettuce, crispy bacon, and the marinated tomatoes.
Roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other, ensuring everything is snugly wrapped inside. Let the assembled wrap rest for 2-3 minutes before cutting it in half.
