Chicken Lettuce Wraps

This is one of my favorites. The flavors burst in your mouth with every bite. Best of all, you don't need to feel quilty because it's good for you! You will feel like you've indulged while feeling energized by the nutrients. Your kids will even like it! I don't believe the nutrients caculated is correct, this recipe calls for fresh ingredients as well as boneless skinless chicken breast.

Very, very good. I used some left over salmon instead of the chicken and it worked great. Of course, chicken would be good, too. I cut back a bit on the chili paste..I used maybe 1/2 a tbs and it was plenty hot for us. As for the nutritional info...it defintely seemed wrong to me as well. I entered the ingredients into a calorie counting website and I think had more accurate results: a little less than 300 calories per serving (3 wraps). Thanks so much for sharing! edited to add: Looks like they've corrected the nutritional info...Even better than I'd hoped!Reply
