This is a GREAT recipe to prep ahead of time! You could totally make the filling ahead of time (on the weekend maybe??) and then warm it up and just throw this all together on the night you want it for dinner! I made the lettuce wraps with a side of brown rice. You really could even make the rice ahead of time too. This recipe has potential to be a two minute prep meal at dinnertime.
Ingredients
12oz ground turkey (for 4oz per person)
1tsp olive oil
1/2 red onion
2 bell peppers
1 clove garlic
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
2 tbsp cilantro
1 large head of lettuce
Preparation
Brown turkey meat while you chop up onion and bell peppers. Add veggies to ground turkey and cook until turkey is no longer pink and onions are translucent. Add garlic, soy sauce, and vinegar and cook until liquid is mostly evaporated. Add cilantro and mix. This mixture can be put in a tupperware and saved for dinner another night!
If prepped ahead of time, take mixture out of refrigerator and microwave (or warm on stove top). Scoop mixture onto large leaves of lettuce. I wrap the leaves up like a little burrito so all the yummy filling stays in and ENJOY!
For the rice, this can be whatever rice you enjoy!! I found these little individual brown rice bags that you just have to boil for 12 minutes and DONE. Fits nicely into our quick and easy dinner theme.
