Calories: 300 Fat: 20g Carbs: 3g Protein: 28g
Ingredients:
4–5 oz sliced turkey or cooked shredded chicken
2 slices cooked bacon
3–4 large iceberg lettuce leaves (outer layers work best)
Optional sauce: 1–2 tablespoons ranch, spicy mayo, or your favorite
Parchment paper (for wrapping)
Instructions:
Prep the lettuce:
Carefully remove 3–4 large leaves from a head of iceberg lettuce.
Soak in cold water for 5 minutes to help them become more flexible and crisp.
Pat dry gently with a clean towel or paper towels.
Lay out the wrap base:
Slightly overlap the lettuce leaves on a clean surface to form a large square or oval base.
Add fillings:
Layer turkey (or chicken) in the center of the lettuce.
Add cooked bacon on top.
Drizzle with your sauce of choice (ranch, spicy mayo, or mustard all work well).
Wrap it up:
Fold in the sides first, then roll tightly from the bottom up like a burrito.
Wrap tightly in parchment paper to help it hold together.
Slice in half if desired and serve immediately.
Tips:
Meal prep tip: You can prep the bacon and chicken/turkey in advance, but assemble the wrap just before eating to keep the lettuce fresh.
Lettuce choice: Iceberg works best for structure, but you can also use butter lettuce or romaine.
For added crunch, add sliced cucumber or shredded carrot.
If packing for lunch, keep it chilled and wrap extra tight in parchment to hold its shape.
This is a great low-carb, high-protein meal that’s both fresh and satisfying!
