Low-Carb Lettuce Wraps

Recipe #367620 | 25 min | 10 min prep | add private note

By: Ashlin
Apr 24, 2009

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!

SERVES 2 , 8 Wraps (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    finely chop your zucchini and water chestnuts & set aside.
  2. 2
    wash butter lettuce.
  3. 3
    combine turkey, parmesan cheese, & salsa in a bowl.
  4. 4
    once combined, brown turkey slightly.
  5. 5
    add zucchini and chestnuts, also soy sauce.
  6. 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. 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. 8
    And -- that's it! Easy, quick, healthy & yummy! I top mine off with a little more salsa {Los Pastores is my favorite!}.
