Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil.
Add the low-sodium bacon slices to the skillet and cook until crispy, usually about 5 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Dice the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces if not already done, and warm them in a microwave or on a skillet for a few minutes.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the meat, and slice it thinly.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas on a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, until soft and pliable.
Assemble the burritos by laying a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start with a portion of the shredded lettuce, followed by a few tablespoons of diced tomatoes.
Crumble 1Β½ slices of the cooked low-sodium bacon over the lettuce and tomatoes.
Add a Β½ cup of the diced chicken to each tortilla, drizzling approximately 2 tablespoons of low-sodium ranch dressing on top.
Sprinkle about ΒΌ cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese and distribute a few slices of avocado over the ingredients.
Finish with a dash of black pepper atop each burrito for added flavor, if desired.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
Repeat the assembly process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low-sodium bacon ranch burrito.
