Recently I tried a juice diet........It went pretty well and turns out that the book had some delicious meals included in it. The South of the Border Lettuce Wraps were so tasty that I adapted this recipe for after the strict non-meat plan. The book is called Cherie Calboum's book The Juice Lady's Turbo Diet, just in case you're interested.
2 ripe avocados
3 tomatoes, diced
1/2 jalapeno pepper, diced and seeds removed
2 tbsp diced onions
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 corn kernels
2 tsp fresh lime juice
6-8 large lettuce wraps
1 Cup diced firm tofu or 1lbs chicken breast, grilled and sliced into bite sized pieces
*shredded cheese, sour cream, salsa optional
Original recipe calls for keeping everything raw and just mixing it all together...
1. Lightly saute onions, garlic and jalapenos in a drizzle of olive oil.
2. Add tofu or chicken and cook until warm.
3. In a separate bowl, mash avocados.
4. Place remaining ingredients in separate bowls and allow diners to assemble wraps as they wish.
