Low Calorie Lettuce Wrap Tacos

Lose Weight By Eating
These Low Calorie Lettuce Wrap Tacos are just 37 calories each!
They are small, so you will absolutely want more than just 1. A good serving side is 8 tacos for 296 calories.
Special Tip: I like to save the leftovers for a lunch salad. I add the leftover lettuce leaves to a meal prep container and rip them a little into bite sides pieces. Then I top with leftover taco meat and toppings and pop into the fridge. Then I have the perfect easy lunch for the next day.
