CHICKEN, BACON, AVOCADO RANCH LETTUCE WRAPS




INGREDIENTS

  • 2 chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1/2 beefsteak tomato, diced
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 lb bacon
  • Ranch dressing
  • Boston Bibb, romaine, or iceberg lettuce
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/2 lime
  • Salt and pepper for seasoning (or chili lime seasoning if you have it)


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Start by seasoning the chicken with salt and pepper, then grill them (you could do stovetop as well).
  2. Meanwhile, bake your bacon on a foil lined cookie sheet at 420�. Start checking for doneness at 15 minutes but it will likely take closer to 20.
  3. I had used ends and pieces so they came already chopped, but if you use regular slab bacon crumble it up after it's cooked.
  4. When the chicken is done, cut it up into bite sized pieces and mix the cilantro in.
  5. Wash the lettuce, and carefully remove each leaf so that it creates a boat, or cup to put the yumminess in.
  6. Now set all your ingredients out so people can build their own lettuce wrap. Squeeze the half a lime over the avocado, tomato, and chicken.
  7. Take the lettuce leaf, fill it with the bacon, avocado, tomato, and chicken. Then drizzle with ranch.
  8. Eat it like a taco and enjoy!

Drop 1 mini pretzel at a time into peanut butter mixture. Turn to coat. You can dip using a fork, but I prefer using a Wilton Dipping Tool. Makes it even easier! Tap fork on the side of the bowl to help excess drip off. Transfer coated pretzel to parchment lined pan. Repeat process with remaining pretzels. Let cool on pan until set. Place semi-sweet chocolate chips in a sandwich sized bag. Microwave for 1 minute. Cut a corner of the bag and drizzle melted chocolate on pretzels. Let cool to set.(...
