Lettuce Wraps!

I experimented with a new recipe tonight and it totally worked! It even got the husband stamp of approval! (So you know it was filling : ) Also, this is very healthy!!

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced (I used garlic salt)
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 lb ground turkey
1-2 tablespoon fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 cup peanuts, crushed
1 head lettuce

1. Heat onions and garlic in olive oil until translucent.
2. Add ground turkey and cook thoroughly.
3. Add remaining ingredients and cook for 5 minutes.
4. Serve in a bowl and add a spoonful to the middle of a lettuce leaf.
5. Wrap, eat and enjoy.

I did it!

Well I reached my goal and ran my first 5k this morning. I was pretty nervous, especially this morning, but once I started running...I actually had fun! And the best part is I finished in my best time yet...right about 35 minutes.

So will I do it again...yes! It was pretty cool to watch some of the half marathoners coming across the finish line...very inspiring. And I just kept thinking..."if those people can do this...so can I!"
