About Lettuce boats

Lettuce Boats are a fresh and versatile dish often featured in Asian-inspired and global fusion cuisine. Typically made by filling crisp lettuce leaves with a combination of protein, vegetables, and flavorful seasonings, they offer a low-carb alternative to wraps or tacos. Common fillings include ground chicken, turkey, or tofu seasoned with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and other spices, paired with crunchy veggies like carrots, bell peppers, or shredded cabbage. Lettuce Boats are nutrient-dense, offering vitamins A and K from the lettuce, lean protein for muscle health, and fiber from the vegetables to support digestion. They're generally low in calories and fat, making them a heart-healthy and waistline-friendly option. However, sodium content can be high if overly reliant on sauces, so balancing spices and fresh ingredients is key. Perfect as an appetizer or light meal, they’re a delicious way to enjoy wholesome ingredients in a hand-held format!
