Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon slices and cook until they are crispy to your liking, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove bacon from the skillet and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
While the bacon cooks, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and set aside.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In the same skillet used for the bacon, add another teaspoon of olive oil. Pour in the beaten eggs to form a round, thin omelette. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges are set, then gently flip and cook for another minute. Remove from the skillet and cut the omelette into halves.
Assemble each bap by laying two lettuce leaves on a flat surface. Spread mashed avocado on each leaf, top with crispy bacon, tomato slices, and half of the egg omelette.
Season with a little more salt and pepper if desired, then fold the lettuce wrap like a burrito, securing the filling inside. Serve immediately.
