Bacon

Line a rimmed half sheet pan with parchment paper. Place the strips of bacon on the parchment paper in a single layer. Place the pan into a cold oven and immediately set the temperature to 375F. Set a timer for the cook time depending on the thickness of the bacon. Thinner bacon will take 18-23 minutes. Thicker bacon will take 24-28 minutes. See the full post on How to Cook Bacon in the Oven for more detailed instructions.

Let cool completely before placing into meal prep containers.

Eggs

Instant Pot method: Place eggs onto the trivet inside the Instant Pot insert. Add 1 cup of water, and close the lid with the vent sealed. Set the pot to manual high pressure for 5 minutes, then let it do a natural pressure release for 4-5 minutes. Release pressure and as safely and quickly as possible, place the eggs under cold water until cool to the touch, and then peel.

Stovetop method: Here are instructions explaining how to make hard-boiled eggs on the stove way better than I ever could.

Assemble

Each meal prep has ingredients for 2 lettuce wraps. Place 2 leaves of lettuce into each meal prep container. Pick large leaves with no rips that would make a good wrap.

Add avocado and tomato to your meal prep container – I keep the tomato separate so the juice doesn’t make other ingredients soggy in the fridge. Slice each quarter of avocado into two slices.

Slice each hard-boiled egg into 4 slices and add to meal prep container. Break each piece of bacon in half (so they fit into the containers) and add 2 whole slices to each container (4 half pieces each).

Add diet specific sides – carrots, nuts, fruit, mayo or ranch, crackers, cheese, etc.

Store in the refrigerator in an sealed container and enjoy within 4 days.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill Your Lettuce Leaves 🧊
Soak butterhead lettuce leaves in ice water for 15 minutes before assembly to maximize crispness and structural integrity for holding fillings without tearing.
Render Bacon Perfectly 🥓
Cook bacon low and slow over medium heat for 12-15 minutes, allowing fat to render completely and create maximum crispness that won't wilt when wrapped with warm eggs.
Ice Bath for Hard-Boiled Eggs ❄️
Immediately transfer boiled eggs to an ice bath for at least 5 minutes to stop the cooking process and achieve a perfectly pale yellow yolk with no gray ring.
Prevent Soggy Wraps 🛡️
Pat tomatoes and avocado slices completely dry with paper towels before assembling wraps to eliminate excess moisture that will quickly wilt delicate lettuce leaves.
Prep Components Separately 🎯
Keep bacon, eggs, tomatoes, and avocado in separate containers for up to 3 days, then assemble fresh wraps when ready to eat for superior texture and flavor throughout the week.
