How to Store This Zesty BLT Wraps with Chipotle Mayo Recipe

These are always best when eaten fresh but if you want to store for later:

  • Refrigeration: If you have leftover wraps, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They’ll stay fresh for up to 24 hours.
  • Reheating: Reheating isn’t recommended as the lettuce and tomato may wilt and the tortilla may become soggy. It is best to make and eat this awesome bacon lettuce tomato wrap right away!

Tips to Make This Zesty BLT Wraps with Chipotle Mayo Recipe

Here are a few tips to ensure your wraps are perfect every time:

  • Bacon: Cook the bacon until it is nice and crispy. This adds great texture to the wraps.
  • Chipotle Peppers: The heat level of chipotle peppers can vary. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. If you’re sensitive to spice, remove the seeds from the chipotle pepper before chopping.
  • Lettuce: Make sure your lettuce is completely dry before assembling the wraps to prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Tortillas: Warm the tortillas slightly before assembling the wraps to make them more pliable and easier to roll.

Helpful Notes for This Zesty BLT Wraps with Chipotle Mayo Recipe

  • Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce: These are commonly found in the international aisle of most grocery stores. If you can’t find them, you can substitute with a pinch of chipotle powder, but the flavor won’t be quite the same.
  • Mayonnaise: We recommend using full fat mayonnaise for the best flavor and creaminess.
  • Lime Juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice is always best but bottled lime juice works just as well in a pinch!
  • Don’t forget to check out our Cinnamon Roll Waffles With Cream Cheese for a delicious dessert after enjoying these savory wraps.
