The first layer inside is thinly sliced pink turkey meat, folded smoothly. On top of the turkey are crispy brown bacon strips with a slightly rough texture. Next, there are bright red tomato pieces, juicy and shiny, placed with green shredded lettuce leaves that look fresh and crisp. One wrap also has pale yellow cheese slices layered under the tomato. The wrap edges are tightly rolled, showing all the ingredients clearly. In the blurred background, there is a white bowl filled with green leafy salad and whole red tomatoes.

Ingredients

  • 1 large flour tortilla (burrito-size)
  • 2–3 slices deli turkey breast
  • 2 slices cooked bacon
  • 2–3 slices ripe avocado
  • 2 slices tomato
  • Handful of lettuce or baby spinach
  • 1 slice cheddar or provolone cheese (optional)
  • 1–2 tbsp mayonnaise (or ranch dressing)
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Warm the tortilla slightly by placing it in a dry skillet over medium heat for 10–15 seconds per side, or microwave it for 10–15 seconds. This makes it softer and easier to wrap.
  2. Step 2: Lay the warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface and spread 1–2 tablespoons of mayonnaise or ranch dressing evenly across the center.
  3. Step 3: Layer the ingredients starting with the lettuce or spinach to create a moisture barrier. Add the turkey slices, then the cheese if using, followed by bacon, tomato slices, and avocado. Season with salt and black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up tightly without tearing, forming a snug wrap.
  5. Step 5: Cut the wrap diagonally in half with a sharp knife and serve immediately, or wrap it for later.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra crunch, add thinly sliced cucumbers or bell peppers.
  • Use flavored tortillas like spinach or sun-dried tomato for added taste.
  • Substitute turkey with grilled chicken or turkey bacon for variation.
  • Try a spread of mashed avocado mixed with lime juice in place of mayo for a fresher flavor.

Storage

Wrap tightly in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. For best texture, avoid making the wrap too far in advance to prevent sogginess. To serve, enjoy cold or warm briefly in a skillet or microwave.

How to Serve

The image shows a wrap cut in half, stacked on a wooden board with a white marbled surface underneath. The wrap has several layers: the outer layer is a light tortilla with light brown spots from cooking. Inside, there is a layer of shredded green lettuce at the top, followed by a crispy, crunchy layer of dark red-brown bacon. Below the bacon, there are thin, light pink slices of turkey rolled neatly, with a layer of yellow cheese just beneath the turkey. In the background, there is a white bowl filled with bright red cherry tomatoes and another white bowl with green leafy lettuce. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different type of wrap?

Yes, you can use whole wheat, spinach, or gluten-free tortillas to suit your preference.

How do I prevent the wrap from becoming soggy?

Layer lettuce or spinach first to act as a barrier against moisture from tomatoes and avocado. Also, avoid over-spreading wet ingredients and assemble the wrap just before eating.

Ingredients

Scale

Wrap

  • 1 large flour tortilla (burrito-size)

Fillings

  • 23 slices deli turkey breast
  • 2 slices cooked bacon
  • 23 slices ripe avocado
  • 2 slices tomato
  • Handful of lettuce or baby spinach
  • 1 slice cheddar or provolone cheese (optional)

Spread

  • 12 tbsp mayonnaise (or ranch dressing)

Seasoning

  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Warm the Tortilla: Start by warming your tortilla just a little to make it softer and more pliable. You can place it in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 10–15 seconds per side or microwave it for 10–15 seconds. This prevents tearing when wrapping.
  2. Spread the Mayo (or Ranch): Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface and evenly spread 1–2 tablespoons of mayonnaise or ranch dressing across the center. This adds moisture and flavor without making the wrap soggy.
  3. Layer the Ingredients: Build your wrap layers thoughtfully to prevent sogginess. First, add the lettuce or spinach as a moisture barrier. Next, layer the turkey slices, then the cheese slice if using. Follow with cooked bacon, tomato slices, and finally, the ripe avocado slices. Sprinkle a little salt and black pepper over the fillings for seasoning.
  4. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the bottom up without tearing. Aim for a snug, burrito-style wrap that neatly holds all the ingredients together.
  5. Slice and Serve: Using a sharp knife, cut the wrap in half diagonally for a great presentation and easier handling. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper or foil to enjoy later.

Notes

  • Warming the tortilla softens it and helps prevent tearing during wrapping.
  • Layer lettuce first to keep the wrap from becoming soggy due to juicy ingredients like tomato and avocado.
  • Use cooked and cooled bacon for the best texture in the wrap.
  • The cheese slice is optional and can be omitted for a lighter wrap.
  • For a healthier option, consider using a whole wheat tortilla or a low-fat mayo alternative.
  • The wrap is best eaten fresh but can be stored wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
