Teriyaki Turkey Wraps

Easy

This is a recipe adopted from a popular appetizer served in Asian Fusion restaurants. It can be prepared as a complete meal or as a snack. The Teriyaki sauce flavor is made from a base of soy sauce that you can sweeten with a carbohydrate-free sweetener or a calculated amount of Agave Nectar. Agave Nectar is 100% carbohydrate but has a lower glycemic index than regular sweeteners and only 1 gm is needed to sweeten this recipe. Raw ground turkey absorbs oil during sauteeing which adds to this flavorful combination of ingredients.

INGREDIENTS

Ground Turkey - raw
Carrots - raw, sliced into toothpick sized sticks
Coconut - dried, shredded - unsweetened
Peanuts - dry roasted - chopped
Soy Sauce such as Kikkoman Naturally Brewed
Carbohdyrate-free sweetener or Agave Nectar (1gm is plenty for entire recipe)
Lettuce

DIRECTIONS

1Pour oil into small frying pan and heat until it begins to sizzle.
2Place ground turkey in pan using a small spatula to stir, breaking it into small pieces and sauteeing until pink color is gone.
