I am going to make these next week. Lettuce has been good recently and this will save some calories skipping the tortillas. Chris said he would try the lettuce wraps is I went Asian with the flavors.
1/2lb. lean ground turkey
1/2 C. chopped peeled jicama or celery
1/4 chopped onion - I may do red onion slices
2 tbsp. reduced sodium soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tsp. minced fresh ginger root
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/4 C. julienned carrots
6 Bibb lettuce leaves
Hot mustard, optional
In a large skillet, cook turkey, jicama, and onion over medium heat 4-6 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink, breaking up the meat into crumbles. Stir in soy sauce, ginger, garlic and peppers. Add carrot; cook and stir 1-2 minutes longer or until liquid is absorbed.
Serve in lettuce. Add mustard if desired.
