Ground Beef Lettuce Wraps

Holy Moly. If you want to have the most amazing lettuce wraps, you will want to try these! I could not stop eating them! I used the recipe from the back of the lettuce wraps seasoning and it worked out perfect. The only difference is I didn't use chicken but ground beef instead. And we used lean ground beef so it's kidney-friendly.  Ingredients: 1 package Lettuce Wrap Seasoning 1/4 cup water 1 tbsp soy sauce 1 1/2 tsp Monkfruit 1 pound ground beef Water chestnuts Sliced green onions 1 head iceberg lettuce Directions: In a bowl, combine seasoning, water, soy sauce, and monkfruit.  Let sit in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.  In a skillet, combine the ground beef with the seasoning mixture. Cook mixture on high for 1 minute and then turn down to medium until cooked all the way through, about 5-7 minutes. Cut a head of iceberg lettuce and tear off lettuce to use as a bowl or cup. Slice water chestnuts and green onions. Pour the meat mixture in a lettuce cup and then top with water

Easy Taco Seasoned Beef Lettuce Wraps

I have been wanting the Wholesome Yum Easy Keto Cookbook for MONTHS and I finally got it for Christmas (Thanks BF!) I was off work for 9 days so I decided to take the time and go through my cookbook, write down some recipes, and start making some delicious meals. One of the first meals I made was the Thai Beef Lettuce Wraps on page 69 of the cookbook - can also be found HERE . Since we don't like fish sauce, coconut aminos were too expensive, and we didn't want bell pepper, we ended up changing the recipe quite a bit. I just used this recipe as a reference/guide and we ended up making taco-seasoned beef which was much more flavorful. I can't say it was low carb but it was still delicious. I also am a huge fan of butter lettuce which was used in the recipe. Enjoy! Ingredients: -1 tbsp avocado oil -2 tsp minced garlic -1 pound ground beef -1/2 tsp salt -1/4 tsp pepper -1 1/2 tbsp lime juice -1 taco seasoning packet -8 leaves butter lettuce -1/2 avocado, diced -1/
