Clean Eating Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Lettuce wraps seem to be all the rage these days. I see them more and more on restaurant menus, so I thought I would try them out myself.
Although Mike looked at his plate, picked up the giant leaf of lettuce and pretended to nibble on it like a rabbit, I know he enjoyed them as much as I did.
They're a light alternative to tacos that you can dress up however you like with your favourite toppings.

I'm loving Taco Tuesdays again!

Ingredients:
-1 lb ground chicken (or turkey)
-1 head of Boston leaf lettuce
-veggies: I used shredded carrot, chopped celery, and sauteed mushrooms
-shredded cheese
-medium onion chopped
-2 tbsp chili powder
-1 tbsp cumin
-ground pepper
-1 tbsp garlic powder
-1 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)


1. Brown ground chicken in a pot. Add spices.
2. Add in onions and continue cooking until they are translucent.
3. Tear away whole leaves of lettuce and wash.
4. Use the lettuce leaf like a wrap and fill with chicken, veggies and any other toppings you desire.

Enjoy!







All ready to go!
