The 1st Ingredient

Welcome!

Well folks here it is!  Our first entry.  We decided to start it off simple, healthy and TASTY!  So, last night we made Teriyaki Turkey Lettuce Wraps with roasted peanuts and coconut.  This recipe is going to leave you satisfied and full but will keep you feeling light!  Raise your hand if too often you and your loved ones make heavy food that makes you feel bloated within the hour?  (Go on, raise your hand)  The challenge is to find an overlap in what is healthy and light, but also leaves you and your biggest eaters feeling full.  These turkey wraps will hit all these points, and on a budget!!  Follow the simple steps below and enjoy!

Teriyaki Turkey Lettuce Wraps
Total time: 30 mins
4 Servings

1 lb ground turkey meat (go grass fed when you can stretch your budget; it's worth it!)
1 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
2 cups shredded, sweetened coconut
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
1 head of butter lettuce

Brown turkey in a saucepan.  When brown add teriyaki and keep heated until thick.  In the meantime, chop nuts in a food processor and place in a separate bowl.  Also, in a separate bowl place the coconut flakes.  Peel off whole butter lettuce leafs and wash (make sure they're dry afterwards).  Set aside for wrapping.  When the turkey and sauce have thickened, serve up "taco style" in the lettuce wraps and pile on the peanuts and the coconut.  Fold and enjoy!!
