3. Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Easy BLT Wraps

Preparing the Bacon

Start by frying or baking the bacon until crispy. For a quick and mess-free method, you can use the Compact 6-in-1 Digital Air Fryer which makes cooking bacon incredibly easy and clean. Once cooked, place the bacon on paper towels to drain excess grease and set aside.

Prepping the Ingredients

While the bacon is cooking, wash and shred the lettuce, slice the tomatoes, and prepare any optional toppings. Mix the mayonnaise with Dijon mustard if you prefer a tangy flavor. Season with salt and pepper to enhance taste.

Assembly of the BLT Wraps

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the mayo-Dijon mixture across the center of the tortilla. Layer with lettuce, tomato slices, and crispy bacon. Feel free to add extra toppings if desired. Roll up the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go.

Serving the Wraps

Slice the wraps diagonally if you like, and serve immediately. For an added touch, cut into smaller pinwheels or serve with a side of chips or pickles. These wraps are perfect for quick dinners and make great portable meals for on-the-go.

If you have leftovers, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.

Avoid pre-assembling the wraps too far ahead as the tortilla may become soggy.
