Lettuce Wraps Recipe

In spring time we have more lettuce growing than we know what to do with. This meal is quick, and is near zero carb, and a great way to use up lettuce.

Another idea is to replace tortillas with lettuce when making tacos. The filling is seasoned taco meat, and you top with cheese, tomatoes, sour cream, salsa and guacamole.

Ingredients

1 LB	Ground Pork or Chicken
1 inch	grated ginger
4	cloves garlic
1 teaspoon	Red Pepper Flakes
1/4 teaspoon	salt
1/4 cup	soy sauce
2	large carrots chopped
1/2	medium onion
2-3	coarsely chopped mushrooms (optional)

Directions

Fry all ingredients in a pan, until the pork is cooked.

Spoon filling into a large Romaine or butter crunch leaf, and top with cilantro, chopped peanuts, hoisin sauce, and thinly sliced onions.
