LETTUCE LEAF TACOS
For those on a low-carb kick that love Mexican but dread all the beans and bread, try this alternative for taco night. It uses lettuce leaves instead of taco shells to make a dish that's halfway between a lettuce wrap and a taco. Low on carbs and still delicious!

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but these tacos were terrible. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]These tacos were a waste of time and ingredients. The filling was dry and tasteless, and the lettuce cups were wilted and limp.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my tacos didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The filling was bland and the lettuce cups were soggy.

[email protected]These tacos were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely make them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

[email protected]I love how versatile these tacos are. You can use any kind of ground meat or tofu, and any kind of vegetables you like. I've even made them with leftover roasted chicken.
