How to store it

Helpful tips

• Make sure to drain the bacon well after cooking to avoid sogginess in your wraps.
• You can toast the tortillas slightly before assembling to add a bit of warmth and crispiness.
• Fresh ingredients work best, so aim to use ripe tomatoes and fresh lettuce for maximum flavor.

Optional variations

• Swap the Greek yogurt for avocado for a creamier texture and added healthy fats.
• Use turkey bacon or a vegetarian bacon alternative if you want a lighter option.
• Try adding sliced avocado or cheese for extra flavor and texture.
