Equipment

  • parchment paper or waxed paper

Ingredients

  • 1 head iceberg lettuce cut in half and core removed (washed)
  • 3 ounces grilled chicken (pre-cooked) or baked, Rotisserie. We used chicken breasts.
  • bacon (pre-cooked)
  • cup cucumber diced small
  • 1 small tomato chopped
  • 1 small avocado sliced
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese grated
  • 3 tablespoons Caesar Salad Dressing keto store bought or homemade recipe below in the recipe notes

Instructions

  • Cut the iceberg lettuce head in half and remove the core. Wash the lettuce leaves and towel dab dry.
  • Lay down a sheet of parchment paper (approximately 20 inches x 15 inches) horizontally on your worksurface.
  • Carefully remove a few lettuce leaves and overlap them into a shape of a rectangle on the parchment paper.
  • Toss the chopped grilled chicken in Caesar salad dressing and stir to coat.
  • Place the grilled chicken in Caesar dressing, bacon, cucumber, tomato, avocado and Parmesan cheese in the top third of the lettuce leaves nearest to you. (add or exclude ingredients as desired)
  • Using the parchment paper, roll the lettuce wrap sandwich away from you, applying firm pressure to secure the roll. While holding the roll in place, fold in the ends of the lettuce. Carefully slide down the parchment paper towards the end of the roll while continuing to tightly roll the lettuce wrap. Fold the ends of the parchment paper over the lettuce wrap and tightly roll to secure it.
  • Use a serrated knife to cut the Chicken Caesar lettuce wrap sandwich in half.

Notes

Homemade Low Carb Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe
  • ½ cup of mayonnaise (keto friendly – without any added sugars)
  • 1 tablespoon on Dijon mustard
  • ½ juice of a lemon
  • ¼ cup parmesan
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
 We are not fond of anchovies, so we skipped it.
Storage
These quick and easy Caesar salad wraps are best enjoyed straight away. If you are planning a party, gathering or lunch on the go, they can be assembled up to 4 hours in advance but hold the dressing until you serve them. Alternatively, you can prep all the toppings (excluding the avocado that can oxidize) and then just roll them up just before serving.
