6 lettuce wraps

I used to make these during my training days when I worked at a restaurant in Hawaii. They're low-fat, low-carb, high-protein, quick and delicious—a great choice before or after a workout. —Duncan Omarzu, Astoria, New York

Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
6 ounces sliced deli turkey, coarsely chopped
6 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
6 Bibb or Boston lettuce leaves
1/2 medium ripe avocado, peeled and cubed
1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/4 cup alfalfa sprouts, optional

Directions

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, 3-4 minutes. Add turkey; heat through. Stir in tomatoes and vinegar just until combined.
Serve in lettuce leaves. Top with avocado, cheese and, if desired, sprouts.

Health tip

Deli meat is typically lean, like the turkey used in these low-carb wraps, but it’s also high in sodium. Switch to leftover cooked turkey or chicken to cut back on sodium.
