Crunchy iceberg lettuce leaves stand in for tortillas in this recipe that's a fun play on a club sandwich with almost no carbs. To make this recipe, layer sliced turkey over lettuce leaves. A sun-dried tomato mayonnaise adds tons of flavor and zing. Add a few creamy slices of avocado, and the wraps are ready to enjoy.
When choosing deli turkey, opt for slices free of sugar. Otherwise, these wraps won't be nearly as healthy — or as low in carbs! Ask at the deli counter or read the label carefully. Any ingredient ending in "-ose" is actually sugar in disguise.
