Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Head of Romaine lettuce
- 100 grams Prosciutto, thinly sliced
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 50 grams Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.25 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Wash the Romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Set aside the largest, sturdiest leaves for the wraps.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Lay two large Romaine leaves on a clean surface to serve as the base for each sandwich.
Spread a tablespoon of the mayonnaise mixture evenly over each lettuce leaf.
Divide the prosciutto evenly between the two lettuce wraps, laying the slices flat over the mayonnaise.
Layer the sliced avocado over the prosciutto, followed by the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced red onion.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the toppings and season again with a touch more salt and pepper if desired.
Top the fillings with fresh basil leaves for a fragrant finish.
Fold the sides of the lettuce over the fillings as tightly as you can, similar to a burrito, starting with one side, then folding the bottom, and finally the opposite side.
Secure the folded sandwich with a toothpick to prevent it from opening, if necessary.
Serve immediately as a cool and refreshing keto-friendly meal.
