Whole30 Chicken Avocado Lettuce Wraps
As seen on Day 2 of the Whole30 Challenge. Click to read more!
Continuing on with the healthy recipes that are WHOLE 30 compliant, my newest LUNCH creation was a success. Since I made extra herb-rubbed chicken last night, I decided to keep it simple and make a lettuce wrap for lunch, accompanied with a fresh fruit mix of fresh pineapple, strawberries, and coconut flakes. It's pretty self-explanatory, but to keep in the spirit of details...here you go.
TASTE TEST: The wrap turned out delicious and will definitely be a repeat down the road.
Whole30 Chicken Avocado Lettuce Wraps
INGREDIENTS:
cooked chicken
onions, diced
tomatoes, diced
bell peppers, sliced or diced
cucumber slices
1/2 avocado
OPTIONAL:
CILANTRO: You can also add a little cilantro for a fresh straight-of-your-garden (or fridge) taste.
HOT SAUCE: I drizzled the famous Frank's Red Hot Sauce on the last wrap, and I will say, this was the perfect amount of kick that it needed.
HARDBOILED EGGS: You could also add hardboiled eggs for an extra protein punch.
BEAN SPROUTS: If I would have thought ahead, I probably would have added bean sprouts, but that was one of the few produce items I currently did not have growing inside my fridge.
MAYO: With no sugar added - check the labels, this one is hard to find!
STEPS:
Cut up the chicken, onions, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and avocados.
Add a touch of mayo (One of the few I could find with no sugar added came from Whole Foods. You can make your own mayo as well, but for convenience sake, I opted for the pre-made variety.)
Place everything in the large romaine lettuce leaf. Extra points for decorative flair.
