Ingredients
- Large flour tortilla: Choose one that feels soft and flexible for easy wrapping Avoid tortillas that are dry or cracking
- Ranch dressing: Adds tangy creaminess Freshly made ranch from the refrigerated section tastes extra delicious
- Oven-roasted turkey breast deli style: Opt for turkey with a short ingredient list and true roasted flavor It makes a difference in every bite
- Cheddar cheese: Brings melty goodness Sharp cheddar will give more flavor than mild so look for bold varieties
- Cooked bacon: Look for bacon cooked until crispy pat the pieces dry to minimize sogginess in your wrap
- Tomato slices: Use ripe tomatoes for a juicy bite Roma and beefsteak both work well Slice thinly to keep the wrap easy to roll
- Chopped romaine lettuce: Adds crunch and freshness Use crisp bright green leaves and chop just before assembling for best texture
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Wrap:
- Lay the tortilla flat across a clean cutting board or countertop Check for tears or holes so the filling does not leak
- Spread the Dressing:
- Use a knife or spatula to evenly smear ranch dressing over the center of your tortilla This creates a creamy base and helps the filling stick together
- Add the Fillings:
- Layer turkey slices across the ranch Spread out the cheddar cheese Swoop in the bacon tucking it in so you get bacon in every bite Distribute tomato slices and then sprinkle with crisp romaine lettuce for extra crunch
- Roll it Burrito Style:
- Fold the lower edge of the tortilla over the fillings Bring in each side of the tortilla so nothing escapes Then roll tightly from the bottom up Use gentle pressure as you go to hold everything together The tighter the roll the less messy it will be to eat
- Slice and Serve:
- If you like trim both ends for a neat presentation and slice the wrap in half Enjoy right away for best texture
