They’re quick to make, packed with protein, and full of fresh crunch, making them ideal for lunch or meal prep.
By swapping traditional wraps or tortillas for butter lettuce leaves, this recipe keeps carbs low while still delivering big flavor and satisfying texture.
If you’re not a fan of spicy food you can use mild buffalo sauce.
The Ingredients
Cooked Chicken Breast: Chicken breast is a lean, high-protein staple that keeps you full and satisfied without adding unnecessary fat.
Buffalo Sauce: Buffalo sauce adds bold flavor with minimal calories and carbs. Using a measured amount gives you that spicy kick without relying on sugar-heavy sauces.
Olive Oil: A small amount of olive oil provides heart-healthy fats that enhance flavor and help your body absorb fat-soluble nutrients. Since only one teaspoon is used, it keeps points and calories in check.
Butter Lettuce: Butter lettuce is low in carbs and calories while offering a sturdy yet tender wrap alternative. It’s also hydrating and provides fiber, making it an excellent replacement for tortillas or bread.
Shredded Carrots: Carrots add natural sweetness, crunch, and a boost of vitamin A. Using a modest portion keeps carbs low while still enhancing texture and nutrition.
Diced Cucumbers: Cucumbers are refreshing, hydrating, and extremely low in calories and carbs. They add crunch and volume, helping you feel fuller without increasing points.
Reduced-Fat Feta Cheese: Reduced fat feta delivers creamy, tangy flavor using less fat and fewer calories than regular cheese.
Green Onions: Green onions add fresh flavor and color with virtually no calories. They’re a simple way to elevate the dish without impacting carbs or points.
