Low-Carb Lettuce Wraps

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!

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 2
• Yields: 8 Wraps

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

Directions

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