Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fiber One™ original bran cereal
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce plus water to make 1/2 cup
  • 1 package (20 oz) lean (at least 93%) ground turkey
  • 1 1/2 cups julienne carrots (1 1/2x1/4x1/4 inch)
  • 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
  • 1/3 cup Thai peanut sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 15 leaves Bibb or iceberg lettuce

Steps

  • 1
    Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and finely crush with rolling pin or meat mallet (or finely crush in food processor). In large bowl, mix crushed cereal and soy sauce-water mixture. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • 2
    Thoroughly mix turkey into cereal mixture. Spray 10-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Add turkey mixture, carrots and onion; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until turkey is no longer pink.
  • 3
    In small bowl, mix peanut sauce and lime juice until blended. Stir into turkey mixture. Reduce heat to low. Cover; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are crisp-tender and flavors are blended. Stir in cilantro.
  • 4
    To serve, spoon about 1/3 cup turkey mixture into each lettuce leaf.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If mixture seems too thick, add additional water, 2 tablespoons at a time.
  • tip 2
    Have a busy week coming up? Make the meat mixture the day ahead, cover and refrigerate. Simply heat it up when ready to eat!
