About
Cuban sandwiches traditionally are made with a sweet ham, slow-roasted pork, pickle, swiss cheese, and sometimes an assortment of other veggies all layered within a loaf of cuban bread. This keto adaption is all those favorite ingredients wrapped inside a lettuce wrap! Even better, this lunch can be made in under 20 minutes!
Ingredients
- 2 medium slice – 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" x 1/16" – each 0.75 ounce ham
- 2 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 slices president's jamon serrano dry-cured ham by daniele
- 1 ounce kosher baby dills by great gherkins
- 3 slice (from pre-sliced package) – each 3/4 ounce swiss cheese
- 2 outer (large) leaf lettuce, green leaf
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees and line a sheet tray with parchment paper. On the parchment paper, lay down 2 slices of ham and spread a teaspoon of dijon mustard across each.
- Next, lay a slice of cured pork over each mustard layer. Slice and arrange your pickle on top of the pork.
- Lay 1 ½ slices of swiss cheese on top of each cuban stack. Place the tray in the oven and cook for 6-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and just slightly golden on the edges.
- Lay 2 large green leaves on a flat surface, removing the hard core if necessary. You can tear and rearrange the leaves so they lay completely flat. Use a spatula to transfer each cuban stack from your sheet tray to lay horizontally at one end of each green leaf.
- Roll up your cuban lettuce wraps, folding the edges of the green leaf in like a burrito as you go. Enjoy right away or slice each wrap in half before eating.
