Love My Lettuce Wraps



Hope this post finds everyone enjoying their holiday shopping! Did you buy your slow cooker,(AKA crock pot), yet? I hope so! As I have mentioned before it really is a great appliance for people with a schedule from hell! It is also great for entertaining....give it a try!
This is a great dish...a lot of fun and inexpensive.
Asian Lettuce Wraps
1 package of your Ground Beef of choice (the package that runs just under 2 pounds)
1/2 cup of Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 Tbls Oyster Sauce
2 Tbls Honey
1/2 Tsp Toasted Sesame Oil
1 Tsp Garlic Powder
1 heaping Tbls freshly grated Ginger
2 Green Onions thinly diced saving some for garnish
1 package of Rice Noodles cooked and cooled according to package
1 head of Romaine or Boston Lettuce leaves cleaned and dried
Brown beef and drain.
Set slow cooker on low for 4 hours.
Put Beef, Soy, Honey, Sesame Oil,Garlic Powder, Ginger, and Green Onion all in the slow cooker.
Give a good stir.
Cover and let her go.
Arrange the lettuce and noodles on a platter.
Take the meat out of the slow cooker with a slotted spoon and put on the platter.
Sprinkle with the reserve Green Onions.
Admire and enjoy!
