Lettuce Wraps

I have had many people ask me how I eat on P4 and I have to say its similar to P2 and P3.  I really just concentrate on eating healthy.  Do I spluge from time to time, yes!  I thought it would be helpful to just share for what I am eating and document any side effects from it.  I am a little more simple and just make stuff up as I go along.  I do not own a recipe book and do not research recipes,  I am however great at throwing things together.  Yesterday I shared my Taco Salad and today for lunch I went in and threw together these lettuce wraps.  I am sure there many different ways you can make lettuce wraps and make them work for any phase.
