LETTUCE LEAF TACOS
For those on a low-carb kick that love Mexican but dread all the beans and bread, try this alternative for taco night. It uses lettuce leaves instead of taco shells to make a dish that's halfway between a lettuce wrap and a taco. Low on carbs and still delicious!

LETTUCE WRAP TACOS
I sort of made this by accident, trying to recreate something else. My skeptical wife was amazed and added it to the menu rotation! Add other toppings as you like. I think sun-dried tomatoes are also good with this.
