RECIPE OF THE DAY! LOW CALORIE LETTUCE WRAP

A certain restaurant that we frequent serves the most delicious lettuce wraps. This is a close take on mimicking these tasty, lean wraps I just took a few things out to keep the calorie count down.

This is not only absolutely delicious, but it is a great snack or lunch. For those of us
that can eat chicken, this chicken has a dressing that goes over it to help keep it moist.
Refrigerate any leftovers and enjoy them cold as a snack for later! YUM So Incredible! ENJOY!!

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)tyson works well!!

1 cup chopped or sliced raw onion
