Trying to be healthy Ingredients:
1 1/4 lbs extra-lean ground turkey |
1 (16 ounce) package frozen oriental mixed vegetables, thawed |
1/3 cup reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce (i bought organic brand at whole foods cuz it has natural sugar and small amount of it) |
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (also bought at whole foods) |
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (i used natural peanut butter, no sugar) |
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger, root (i do not like ginger so i skipped this ingredient but i'm sure it's good with it) |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon sesame oil |
4 green onions, chopped |
10 boston lettuce leaves |
additional hoisin sauce (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook and stir the turkey over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Coarsely chop mixed vegetables; add to the pan. Stir in teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, peanut butter, ginger, garlic, vinegar and oil. Cook and stir over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until heated through. Remove from heat. Stir in onions. Place a 1/2 cup turkey mixture on each lettuce leaf; fold lettuce over filling. Serve with additional hoisin sauce, if desired. |
