Who doesn’t love a warm, crunchy BLT? Our waistlines, that’s who. The calorie, sodium and fat counts that bacon packs is unreal — but if you find the right cut and bake it rather than fry it, you’ll have less to worry about in the nutrition department. At only 184 calories per wrap, it might be tough not to make this every day!
Pro tips:
- If you don’t have a rimmed baking sheet, just make sure to fold up the edges of the foil to make rims. That way, the run-off bacon fat won’t spill into the oven.
- Mix things up by using a yellow tomato instead of red to help yourself bulk it up with a different type of lettuce leaf (like Romaine), or add arugula!
