This recipe is a result of my friend's no-carb diet...& we basically just pulled out everything from the fridge that he can eat and made lettuce wraps from it. I thought they turned out surprisingly well so I wanted to share! Ingredients:
1/2 lb lean ground turkey |
1 zucchini |
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts |
1/4 cp. soy sauce |
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese |
1 head butter lettuce |
1/4 cp. salsa |
olive oil or grapeseed oil |
Directions:
1. finely chop your zucchini and water chestnuts & set aside.
2. wash butter lettuce.
3. combine turkey, parmesan cheese, & salsa in a bowl.
4. once combined, brown turkey slightly.
5. add zucchini and chestnuts, also soy sauce.
6. {it's important to have the salsa and soy sauce in the turkey, not just for flavor but because lean turkey tends to get really dry when cooked}.
7. once meat is cooked thoroughly and veggies are tender remove from heat and let cool just for a few minutes {the hot meat tends to really wilt the lettuce}.
8. And - that's it! Easy, quick, healthy & yummy! I top mine off with a little more salsa {Los Pastores is my favorite!}.
