Makes 1 serving • Prep time: 5 minutes

Perfect for when you need a quick lunch on high-protein days. Swapping in fresh, nutrient-dense lettuce makes a wonderful substitute for a processed and refined wrap. Collard and cabbage leaves are great options, too—steam them first, or try them raw! Serve with a plate of fresh-cut vegetables and dip from the AutophaSauces section.

• 1 large romaine lettuce leaf
• 1–2 tablespoons avocado mayonnaise, tahini, or guacamole
• 4 ounces sliced turkey
• 2 slices nitrite-free bacon, cooked
• ¼ avocado, sliced
• 1 cup spring mix or arugula
• 1 small tomato, sliced
• Chopped fresh basil (optional)

1. Put the romaine leaf on a plate.

2. Spread the avocado mayonnaise, tahini, or guacamole on the leaf. Top with the turkey, bacon, avocado, spring mix, and tomato.

3. Sprinkle with basil, if desired. Wrap the sides of the romaine leaf around the filling and enjoy immediately.
