Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook turkey bacon slices for about 5 minutes per side, until crispy. Once cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomatoes into thin rounds and set aside.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth and spreadable.
In a small bowl, mix the plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and black pepper to make a creamy dressing.
Lay out the whole grain wraps on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of mashed avocado on each wrap.
Place two romaine lettuce leaves on each wrap over the avocado spread.
Add two slices of cooked turkey bacon on top of the lettuce for each wrap.
Layer several slices of tomato on top of the bacon.
Drizzle approximately 1-2 tablespoons of the yogurt dressing over the tomato slices.
Fold in the sides of each wrap, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to encase the fillings. Secure with toothpicks if desired.
Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately for optimum freshness.
