Lettuce Cups or Rolls

I had a go at the lettuce roll ups as a change from the everyday salad. They were delicious and more fun to eat than a bowl full.

I mixed a tsp of lite mayonnaise and a tsp of chili sauce. I spread a bit of this inside four iceberg lettuce leaves.

I prepared the vegetables by making ribbons with a potato peeler. It makes them easier to bite in the roll up.

I used a zucchini, carrot, a little finely sliced red onion, and a few cherry tomatoes sliced into 3-4 pieces.

I piled the vegetables into the lettuce leaves. Two lettuce cups is about two cups of vegetables.

Roll the lettuce up and enjoy! Easy to eat and no fork required.

If you didn't want to use mayonnaise you could toss some lite dressing through the vegetable ribbons before piling them into the lettuce cups.

  1. A big thanks to my daughter who introduced me to ribboned vegetables, especially courgette/zucchini.
