These BLT Turkey Wraps with Avocado Mayo are low-carb, high-protein, and bariatric-friendly. A quick lunch recipe packed with flavor, ready in under 10 minutes!
I first made this wrap during my post-op phase after gastric bypass surgery when I needed small, high-protein meals without the bulk of bread. Rolling the fillings inside turkey slices became a quick and easy way to get a satisfying meal without carbs or heavy textures.
Now I make them for the whole family—with or without a tortilla—because they’re just that good. It’s a 5-minute recipe that feels fresh, flavorful, and completely customizable.

💖 Why This Recipe Works
- Quick & easy: Ready in under 10 minutes.
Low-carb & bariatric-friendly: No bread, high protein, and easy on digestion.
Customizable: Add cheese, greens, or spices to suit your taste.
⭐ Star Ingredients
- Lean Turkey Breast Slices: High in protein, soft in texture, and ideal for bariatric post-op meals. I use low-sodium, ultra-thin slices that roll well without falling apart.
- Avocado Mayo: A creamy, healthy-fat spread that’s easier to digest than regular mayo and keeps things moist without being heavy.
- Crispy Bacon: Adds salty crunch and a punch of flavor. For bariatric diets, use a small amount or sub in turkey bacon crumbles.
- Tomato + Lettuce: Adds freshness and color. For sensitive tummies, use baby spinach or skip raw veggies during early post-op.

📖 Substitutions & Variations
- Tortilla-Free: Roll ingredients inside the turkey slices instead of a wrap for a no-carb version.
- Skip the bacon: Swap for smoked paprika or turkey bacon if you need a lower-fat option.
- Make it dairy-free: Leave out the cheese or use vegan cheddar if you’re dairy-sensitive.
- Extra protein: Add cottage cheese or a side of Greek yogurt for a full bariatric-approved lunch.

🔪How To Make BLT Turkey Wraps With Avocado Mayo
- Step 1: Place the mayonnaise and avocado into a small mixing bowl and mash together with a fork until well combined, or use a food processor for a smoother texture.

- Step 3: Add 1-2 slices of precooked bacon on top of the avocado mayo in the center of the turkey slice.
- Step 4: Layer lettuce and tomato slices over the bacon and mayo.
- Step 5: Roll the turkey slice gently around the fillings and secure it in the center with a toothpick.

💡Hint: Use paper towels to blot tomatoes and lettuce dry—this helps prevent sogginess, especially in make-ahead lunches.
👩🍳 Expert Tips
- Go soft: For early post-op meals, skip raw veggies and finely chop the bacon to keep textures soft.
- Cool before slicing: Chill wraps for 10 minutes before cutting to help them hold their shape.
- Portion smart: For bariatric needs, cut wraps into 2–3 small pinwheels and eat slowly.
- Meal prep friendly: These store well wrapped in parchment or plastic wrap and can be made a day ahead.
💭 FAQs
Yes! Assemble the wraps a few hours in advance, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Use sturdy toothpicks to secure the wraps, and avoid overfilling them to make rolling easier.
You can! Use mashed avocado with a squeeze of lemon or try Greek yogurt for a lighter tangy spread.
