Greek Keto Lettuce Wraps
Keto lunches can be difficult. At least they are for me. I am a creature of habit for breakfast and dinners can be simply a meat and veggie. But when it comes to lunch, I am at a loss sometimes. Half the time I end up just snacking.
So I set out to create a quick and easy keto lunch recipe that I could easily just whip up. Enter – Greek Keto Lettuce Wraps.
I like to make the dressing ahead of time, then put each of the ingredients into their own container and then I bring everything out at lunch time, assemble, and BOOM.
How to Make Greek Keto Lettuce Wraps
So let’s get to it!
First, you will want to lay out all four of the large outer Romaine lettuce leaves on a flat surface.
Separate the chicken, feta cheese, tomatoes, olives and cucumber between the four lettuce leaves.
In a jar or bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the dressing, and shake or whisk to combine well.
Pour the dressing over the prepared Greek salad lettuce wraps and serve.
Are Wraps Keto Friendly?
Lettuce Wraps are often keto friendy by default. If depends, of course, what you put IN the wraps. As long as you are careful with your ingredients and sauce, then you are good to go!
The keto Italian dressing that is part of this recipe is simply lovely. You can replace this with other keto dressings, though, to make other types of delicious keto wraps.
Some options are keto thousand island dressing and keto avocado ranch. Both are great dressings for wraps!
How Many Carbs in a Lettuce Wrap
In this keto lettuce wrap recipe, there is about 1 net carb per wrap. That is pretty darn good for a keto lunch!
This will change as you change up the ingredients for the lettuce wrap which I highly recommend you do, just to keep it fun and interesting.
But as long as you stick with keto ingredients, then you will be fine!
What Kind of Lettuce Can You Use For Keto Lettuce Wraps?
You can use any lettuce you want as long as it has large, leafy leaves. Romaine leaves are the usual choice for lettuce wraps.
Iceberg and Butter Lettuce are also great options to choose from.
Different Meats to Use
I like to switch up the meats that I use in my lettuce wraps. I usually use cooked chicken breasts for my wraps. I either boil it or bake it and then use it throughout the week for various things.
Sometimes I will buy a Rotisserie chicken, pull all the meat off, and use it for wraps. I’ve also used beef and pork as well. Anything works!
