Lettuce Wraps....one of my favorite healthy meals!
Let me start out by saying that I love, love, LOVE these! I don't always have butter lettuce, or the veges listed below...so I substitute and it always turns out so yummy! Also, I think the srirachi sauce is spicy enough, so I leave out the pepper! ENJOY!
Ingredients:
3/4 lb lean ground meat (beef, turkey, chicken)
4 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1 tsp srirachi sauce
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/4 tsp ground ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 green bell pepper, finely diced
1/2 cup onion, finely diced
3 oz mushrooms, diced
butter lettuce leaves, washed & dried
Directions:
In a medium skillet over high heat, brown the ground meat (I used lean beef), stirring often and reducing the heat to medium when thoroughly browned. Add diced onions; bell peppers. Stir frequently until softened. Add the garlic, soy sauce, srirachi sauce, ginger, and white pepper. Stir occasionally ,adding mushrooms. Cook a few more minutes until mushrooms are softened. Remove from heat. Serve hot in lettuce leaves
So while the meat was browning, I mixed the ingredients that go in after the onions and peppers in a bowl, which made things easier. Also, I left out the mushrooms.
Hope someone tries it and loves it as much as I do!
