Why you should try these chicken salad lettuce wraps
I am a big fan of chicken salad. It is a filling, low-calorie food that is super simple to throw together. I used to eat my salad on a buttery, flaky croissant. While I still love croissants and eat them occasionally, I like this recipe as a lighter alternative!
Using lettuce helps you to really cut down on the calories and carbs. Plus, different kinds of lettuce carry different nutrients that can be great for your overall health. If you’re looking for an enjoyable meal that is healthy and tasty, give this recipe a try!
