This is a simple recipe that’s perfect for any meal. It’s a Paleo version of a BLT with the added kick of a fried egg. You can add some Paleo-friendly mayonnaise to get the full experience. Wilderness Family Naturals makes a great organic mayonnaise that’s made with olive, coconut and sesame seed oils. Its only drawback: it does have a bit of added evaporated cane juice. Homemade mayonnaise (recipe follows) is also an option. Otherwise, this wrap is great with a touch of mustard.
