About Lettuce cups
Lettuce cups are a fresh and flavorful dish often associated with Asian-inspired cuisine. They generally consist of crisp lettuce leaves, such as butter or romaine lettuce, used as a low-carb alternative to wraps or tortillas. Common fillings include lean proteins like chicken, turkey, tofu, or shrimp, seasoned with soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and other aromatic ingredients, along with vegetables like carrots, mushrooms, and water chestnuts for added crunch. Lettuce cups are a nutrient-rich option, offering vitamins A and C from the lettuce and various health benefits from the protein and vegetables. They are naturally gluten-free and can be tailored to suit vegetarian, vegan, or Paleo diets. However, depending on the recipe, sodium levels from sauces or added oils may be a concern, so mindful preparation ensures they remain a wholesome and balanced choice for meals or appetizers.
