WOW! A sandwich without bread...I smashed a little avacado into the mayo mixture with good results. Now if I could just give up the sweets!!! Made for Everyday is a Holiday

These were great! I skipped the mayo and used butter leaf lettuce so it wasn't messy at all. Also good with egg and avocado, and you can skip the cheese to make it paleo.

Great breakfast when you realize you're out of eggs ;-) Thank you.

Yummy! I made these for my DD and myself for lunch and they were gone in no time. I did add some avocado and a little sliced onion but otherwise followed the instructions. I used iceberg lettuce for the wraps (that is what I had). Made for the Recipe Swap#62 March 2012 Aus/NZ .

This was a nice treat to try something different and healthy. I used bacon medallions to cut the fat and left out the cheese as I was looking for a true BLT flavour without the fat. I used iceberg lettuce and it was easy to roll and not as messy as I expected. Thanks for a lovely new healthy treat!
