"Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty—and I am not talking about the process of cleaning the rooms of your teenage children." Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Lettuce Wraps

             

This is our new family favorite! And it is so easy thanks to this seasoning packet. I am all about cutting corners. Mine look a little different than the picture on the packet. Hmm. 

2-3 chicken breasts
1 packet of seasoning
1 tbsp soy sauce 
1 1/2 tsp sugar
2/3 cup water chestnuts, drained
1 small can mushrooms, drained
2 green onions - use as much as you want
2 tbsp Olive oil 
1 head of iceberg lettuce 
Cooked rice

Start cooking the rice. 
In a large bowl mix together the water, sugar, soy sauce and seasoning packet. 
Finely diced chicken, water chestnuts, mushrooms and onions. Add to seasoning mixture. You can make this ahead of time, cover and refrigerate or go straight to cooking now. Add olive oil to large frying pan and heat. Add chicken mixture and stir frequently. Wash lettuce and dry it. Cut into pieces or serve as is. I've started cutting the lettuce head into 4 equal pieces after cutting out the core.  Serve family style and don't be afraid to get a little messy. It is also great for leftovers. If you have any.
