chik'n teriyaki lettuce wraps*...

Wraps

1-2 heads of Bibb lettuce (we like the Living Lettuce from Costco)
2 small cucumbers cut into matchsticks
2 small carrots cut into matchsticks
1 avocado cut into slivers
chow mein noodles
chik'n strips, lightly sauteed (we like the ones from Morningstar Farms) 

Teriyaki Sauce
1 c      cold Water
1/4 c   soy sauce
3 t      brown sugar
1        garlic clove minced (or 1 T minced garlic from a jar)

Bring sauce ingredients to a boil. Then add 1/4 c very cold water stirred with 2 tsp cornstarch.
(Makes 1 cereal bowl of teriyaki sauce.)




Use the lettuce leaves like you would a burrito or soft taco shell. Add pinches of the ingredients into your leaf and drizzle sauce on top. Then roll the leaf closed and enjoy!
