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