Lettece Wrap Filling/ Stir Fry


Got peppers? 
Got carrots? 
Got broccoli?
Got mushrooms?
Get stirfrying!
It's been a rough two weeks, so I'm only now getting to posting this. I first heard of lettuce wraps in January. We buy those huge four heads of lettuce pack from Costco, so it seemed like an ideal way to get rid of the stuff. It's a bit like a taco- if you can imagine lettuce as the shell. It's a little strange, but really good. I've been meaning to try it with re-fried beans, olives and salsa, but for now it's stir fry.

I was driving, and my dad was in charge of the radio. I'm not sure if this is truly a song, but it is hilarious. 


Chop carrots, peppers, celery, broccoli, and mushrooms. In a medium frying pan (or a wok),
 heat oil and soy sauce. Add chopped carrots, broccoli, and celery to pan. When broccoli florets are bright green, add mushrooms and peppers

When the veggies are done, you can take whole lettuce leaves with a little bit of rice in them and add the veggies. You eat it like a taco.
