1533. PESTO BACON LETTUCE and TOMATO WRAPS with SMOKED TURKEY

1 brown rice tortilla wrap
3 slices of smoked turkey
dab of your favorite pesto
3 slices of cooked and crispy bacon
A handful of crisp baby lettuce greens
5 grape tomatoes, halved
sea salt and fresh ground pepper
olive oil, as needed

Heat up the grill on medium high. Lay your tortilla flat. Add the smoked turkey slices. Spread some pesto on the turkey. Add the cooked bacon strips, baby greens, tomatoes. Season with sea salt and pepper. Roll up and lightly brush with olive oil. Place gently on the grill and lower the top. After two to three minutes, open the grill and turn the roll-up on its side (to keep it rounder and less flat); lower the grill top again- gently- and heat through- maybe three minutes. Slice in half and consume with gusto- or wrap in foil for picnics. These wraps travel well in a cooler.
