Paleo Turkey Taco Lettuce Leaf Rollups
Who doesn’t love tacos? Paleo Turkey Taco Lettuce Leaf Rollups are one of our favorite meals to prepare because these are so good for us! The wonderful thing about swapping out your beef for turkey is the high amount of protein you get with this meal. Virtually fat-free and super low calories, the filling for these wraps only hold 1 gram of fat per 33 grams of white turkey meat, plus 6 grams of protein. This recipe is light and the perfect meal when you are trying to go low carb.
This recipe is gluten free and perfect if you are on the Paleo diet. Ditch the traditional taco shells for iceberg lettuce and your meal just got even healthier. Iceberg lettuce is crisp with just the right amount of bite for your Paleo Turkey Taco recipe.
