Seth's Amazing Asian Wraps

Last year my good friend Liz came to stay with me for a few days.  While she was in town she made me Asian Wraps.  They were so fast and easy and YUMMY.  I have been obsessed with them every since.  I make them whenever I have a little extra lunch meat. My husband makes them a little differently than I do.  He made them last night and they were beautiful and tasty.  I'm going to show how he does it, as it is easy and fast.  I make my own sauce, but he used a bottled sauce.  For right now that is okay with me, because the carbs, sugars and calories are already counted for me on the bottle.  I will go to work at making a sugar-free sauce soon.  If anyone is interested I'll post that at a later date.

This is what we are making.

So delicious.

 Basically just chop your favorite veggies and some lunch meat, and mix with a peanut sauce.  You can use any Asian sauce but we like peanut. spoon into large leaves of lettuce and enjoy.  It is that easy.  It is a yummy summer meal, as it doesn't heat up your kitchen.  My boys will even eat this, and they are meat eaters, not rabbits. lol 

Seth used shredded carrots, broccoli slaw mix, and I think he forgot the celery, but normally, he would add that.  I would also add sliced almonds and cucumbers, but Seth doesn't like cucumbers, and he was cooking. :)  I would also add green onions.
This is the sauce he used.  After chopping the meat and adding the veggies, he added almost the entire bottle of peanut sauce. I would say 3/4.
I like turkey best in Asian wraps.  Seth chopped his and added to the veggies. I normally just add a few slices to the top of each wrap.  What can I say? I'm lazy that way.


Seth likes ham, so he added that too.
