Lettuce Wraps courtesy of Bountiful Baskets

I recently discovered Bountiful Baskets. If you haven't heard about it, check it out! It. is. AWESOME! In fact, our entire meal tonight was entirely {minus the sauce and canned chicken} made from the produce I received in my basket last week. I wanted to find some way to use the radishes and celery as neither of us like radishes and rarely eat celery by itself. So I googled a whole bunch of lettuce wraps recipes and couldn't find anything I really liked so I improvised. Minus the garlic overload, it was delicious!

Cut up the following (anyway you'd like):
carrots
radishes
celery
onion
garlic
honey roasted peanuts

throw in some canned chicken {what I had on hand} or the real stuff. I also think Chickpeas would be delightful too.

Chop up some parsley and basil, salt and pepper to taste and throw into a skillet to warm through.

For the sauce I threw in some sesame seed oil, soy sauce, tiny bit of honey, and lime juice.

I peeled off the leaves of a head of lettuce and we used these to wrap up the veggie mix.

It was yum-yum-yummy!!!

We also had a fruit melody consisting of mangoes, strawberries, and honeydew {all courtesy of bountiful baskets} and some foccacia bread with olive oil and pepper on the side. Mmm....
