Lettuce Wraps with Spicy Pork: A Healthy and Flavorful Alternative

Tacos are a very versatile dish as we can prepare them with a variety of fillings. And although we often associate them with high-calorie or unhealthy recipes, it solely depends on the filling we use. However, in this recipe, we are going to replace the tortillas with lettuce leaves to make it an even lighter option. That’s why this recipe for lettuce wraps with spicy pork is perfect for casual meals or a fun dinner that everyone will enjoy.

Recipe for Lettuce Wraps with Spicy Pork Tacos

Preparing this recipe is very simple. Let’s start with the meat. We’ll sauté the finely chopped spring onion and garlic until they are ready, then add the meat until it’s cooked. All that’s left is to season the meat and assemble the tacos.

The rest of the ingredients, such as tomatoes and avocado, will be added raw, finely chopped, once we assemble the tacos.

To assemble the tacos, choose the most sturdy and tender lettuce leaves you can find. Wash them well and place the filling for our tacos on them. Before serving, drizzle some lemon juice on top, and you’re done!

  • 500 g minced pork
  • 8 lettuce leaves
  • 1 Tomato
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Lemon
  • 1 Spring onion
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • Ground cumin
