INGRE­DI­ENTS

This recipe will make two Beaker BLT Wraps.

  • 1 large whole wheat tor­tilla shell
  • 8 strips of bacon, cooked
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese (4 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup shred­ded lettuce
  • 1 moz­zarella cheese stick

  • STEP 1

    Mix cream cheese and diced toma­toes together. Spread over whole wheat tor­tilla shell.

    STEP 2

    Layer four strips of cooked bacon and 1/4 cup let­tuce on top of cream cheese mixture.

    STEP 3

    Muppets Recipe: Beaker BLT Wraps
    Roll up tor­tilla wrap. (Approx­i­mately 2 inches around.) Wrap in plas­tic wrap and store in refrig­er­a­tor until you have the other Beaker acces­sories cut and ready to assemble.

    STEP 4

    To make the eyes, cut 3/4-inch pieces of a moz­zarella stick with kitchen shears and trim until you have formed round balls of cheese. Make holes in the cen­ter with a knife or tooth­pick and add cir­cles of black olives. (I used a clean hole punch to make mine.)

    STEP 5

    Cut strips of a flour tor­tilla shell approx­i­mately 5“x2” for Beaker’s lab coat. (Wide enough to fit around your BLT wrap.) Using kitchen shears, cut the col­lar shapes and fold over.

    STEP 6

    Cut your BLT wrap in half, trim­ming off the rounded ends.

    STEP 7

    Using a lit­tle bit of your cream cheese mix­ture, spread it on a small area at the bot­tom of your wraps. Place a rec­tan­gle of let­tuce over it. (This becomes Beaker’s “shirt” under his lab coat.) Spread more of the cream cheese mix­ture on the back of the lab coat tor­tilla strip, and attach it to the bot­tom of the BLT wrap. Using more cream cheese, attach pieces of black olive that are cut into the shape of a necktie.

    STEP 8

    Draw Beaker’s mouth with a black food col­or­ing marker. Attach the cheese eyes and tomato nose with toothpicks.

    STEP 9

    Insert juli­enne car­rots into the top of the BLT wrap for Beaker’s hair. Mmmmm…. Muppets!
