These turkey lettuce wraps are one of my all-time favorite meals—flavorful, satisfying, and totally customizable. They’re loaded with veggies and spice, and come together fast for the perfect lunch or light dinner!
The recipe:
Dice the onion and zucchini. In a sauté pan, heat olive oil and cook ground turkey with the diced veggies until turkey is browned and veggies are soft (about 7–9 minutes). Season generously with garlic salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder.
While the filling cooks, wash and dry the lettuce leaves and lay them out like cups.
Fill each lettuce cup with the warm turkey-veggie mixture. Top with shredded cheese and let it melt slightly.
Finish with avocado slices, a dollop of sour cream, and a drizzle of sriracha (if using). Enjoy!! xx
