When you add up all the best parts of a classic turkey club–bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo and, of course, roast turkey–you get a meal that’s full of protein and healthy fat, with some vegetables to make it complete. Served up as lettuce wraps, you can still pick them up and eat with your hands, as you would with a sandwich. Swap a few slices of leftover roast chicken for the turkey, if you have it on hand.

Ingredients

1 slice uncured bacon

2 large romaine leaves

1 tablespoon avocado oil mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

3 ounces (about 3 slices) deli turkey

3 cherry tomatoes, chopped

Directions

Place the bacon in a small unheated skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook, turning occasionally, until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool.
Place the romaine leaves on a plate. Divide the mayonnaise and mustard between the two leaves and spread evenly. Top with the turkey and scatter with the tomatoes.
Chop or crumble the bacon and sprinkle it on top. Fold up the sides of the lettuce leaves and eat the wraps as you would a sandwich.

Tips

Check the label carefully to make sure the turkey does not have nitrates or nitrites added. Applegate Organics is a good brand. You can cook the bacon in the microwave, if you prefer. It won’t get as crisp as on the stove but it still works well. Line a small, microwave-safe plate with paper towels, place the bacon on top, and cover with another paper towel. Microwave for 4 to 6 minutes, until cooked through and lightly crisped, checking it halfway through. This works just as well with large butter lettuce leaves. Because these leaves are more delicate, you have to spread the mayo and mustard on the turkey instead of the lettuce.
