Yummo???

I have been excited all weekend for tonight's meal. During Christmas we went to the Cheese Cake Cafe. I had lettuce wraps. I have never had them before and they were so good and healthy, I made a mental note to make them at home. Well tonight was the night! So I chopped and grilled my little heart out. All little match stick pieces so that they would fit in the lettuce.

Well, the first couple of lettuce wraps were excitedly eaten by every one. Lip smacking all around the table. Then after about 4 wraps, London was the first to make her own little nest on her plate. Sean decided that he would never get full by just eating wrap upon wrap so he too joined in and added a pile on his plate. Well I did get full and felt that the meal was awesome. I think that my family would prefer something less foofy. Give it a try and see what your family thinks! All I can think of now is I wish I could get back all that chopping time!

Oh man - how Scott would have loved to have been invited to that meal! He is all about lettuce wraps.. but the slimey-ness of the wrap kinda gags me :S Do tell what you put into them cause I think I will give it another shot! Scott and I have HIGH HOPES of eating healthier this year and I am always up for new ideas!!!
