HCG Oriental Lettuce Wraps

This is a Phase 2 Recipe that can be changed up a little to make a delicious Phase 3 Recipe...

On or off of the HCG 500 Calorie Diet, lettuce wraps are one of my favorite dishes to make. If you are a big fan of lettuce wraps too, then I have a delicious treat for you today - It's a Phase 2 Recipe that can be easily converted to a Phase 3 Recipe, it's called...

HCG Oriental Lettuce Wraps

Here is what you'll need...

• 100 grams - For Phase 2 - use Lean Ground Beef with 1 pinch of Chile Powder - (For Phase 3 use Ground Turkey and no Chile Powder)
• 2 - Celery Stalks (Finely Diced)
• 1 Clove - Minced Garlic (Minced)
• 1 Tablespoon - Onion (Minced)
• 1 teaspoon - Ginger (Minced)
• 1 Pinch - Sea Salt
• Iceberg Lettuce

Directions: 

Mix all of the ingredients together in a medium sauce-pan and sauté. Then serve wrapped up in whole lettuce leafs. (I use Iceberg Lettuce)

One more thing - Enjoy!

Important Note:

My wife and I tried using several different foods that we thought would be okay to use during Phase 2 - Turkey was one of them. We didn't have any problems with our weight loss when we did this. However, it's NOT something that you would want to regularly eat on the 500 Calorie Diet.

But if you want to mix things up a little bit throughout the coarse of 1 round, you might try using Turkey in this recipe during Phase 2. (I know we are naughty and rebellious) - But, if you are having trouble losing weight on the HCG Diet, I wouldn't recommend doing this.
