Ingredients
Scale
Wrap Bites
- 8 small 8‑inch flour tortillas
- 6 slices turkey bacon
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded crisp lettuce
Ranch Dressing
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp buttermilk
- 1 tsp dried dill
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Ranch Dressing: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, buttermilk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, a pinch of salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth. Let the dressing rest for at least five minutes to allow the flavors to meld fully.
- Cook the Turkey Bacon: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the turkey bacon slices in a single layer and cook them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and slightly crisp. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat.
- Warm the Tortillas: Place the flour tortillas in a clean skillet over low heat, warming each side for about 15 to 20 seconds until pliable. Alternatively, microwave the tortillas wrapped in a damp paper towel for 20 seconds. Keep the warmed tortillas covered with a clean kitchen towel to retain softness.
- Assemble and Slice the Wrap Bites: Lay each tortilla flat on a surface. Sprinkle 2 to 3 tablespoons of shredded sharp cheddar cheese in the center, then add two strips of the cooked turkey bacon on top. Drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons of the prepared ranch dressing over the bacon. Roll the tortilla tightly and use a sharp knife to slice each rolled tortilla into 3 to 4 bite-size pieces. Arrange on a serving platter and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use turkey bacon for a leaner, lower-fat alternative to regular bacon.
- Warming the tortillas makes them more pliable and easier to roll.
- Allow the ranch dressing to rest to enhance its flavor.
- Serve these bites immediately to maintain the crispness of the bacon and freshness of the wrap.
- You can add shredded lettuce inside the wraps for added crunch if desired.
