After my oldest was diagnosed with migraines, my husband and I set out to find "triggers." Through our research, we found lots of scary information about toxins in our food and in our everyday products. This information led us down a path to find how we can minimize these toxins in our life, and ensure that our kids have the best life possible. We indulge in fast food, junk, etc. on occasion, but on a daily basis, we try to find meals and other foods that our kids love, but their bodies love more. This blog is dedicated to sharing what I've found works (and sometimes doesn't work).

Chicken Wraps

So, I'm on Spring Break by the way, which is why there are more posts than usual.  Tonight's experiment came from the fact that I wanted to use up the lettuce we had leftover from the turkey burgers.  I decided to do chicken lettuce wraps.  These are not an attempt to "makeover" PF Changs' recipe.  However, I like the idea of the wraps, so I wanted to make something similar, but healthy and organic.

I took 3/4 lb. chicken tenderloins and cut them up into tiny pieces.  Then I marinated the pieces overnight in 2 tbsp. soy sauce and 1 tbsp. brown sugar.  Tonight, the hubby chopped up 1/4 onion and sauteed it.  Then added the chicken and cooked it through.  The end result was even better than I expected!  Plus, depending on how much you put in a wrap (we made 6 servings), they were 60 calories each!

Just wanted to share :)
