BLT Wraps
and watermelon salad with mint
Classic bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches get a new twist when tossed in creamy dressing and rolled into a wrap.
Smarts: If you have any feta leftover from earlier in the week, crumble it into the watermelon salad. Watermelon, mint, and feta are an unexpectedly delicious combination.

Make
-
Heat oven to 400F / 204C degrees.
-
Line a sheet pan with foil and set bacon on top so that none are overlapping. Cook bacon in oven until golden brown and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Pour off extra bacon grease during cooking, if needed, to prevent bacon from being submerged in oil. (You can also fry the bacon in a skillet, if you prefer.)
-
Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
-
While bacon cools, toss together mint, watermelon, oil (portion for salad), and lime juice.
-
Combine tomatoes and lettuce in a mixing bowl. Add dressing a bit at a time until dressed to your liking and toss to combine. Crumble bacon over top and toss once more. Season with some salt and pepper.
-
If you’d like the wraps warm, heat according to package directions.
-
Divide BLT filling between wraps and fold / roll to enclose filling. Serve wraps with watermelon salad on the side. Enjoy!
