Fall Lettuce Cups

Serves 2-3 as main dish

What you need:

  • 1 butterhead lettuce
  • 4 chicken sausages, I like our Spinach & Feta
  • 1 cups  mushrooms, diced
  • 1 cups leeks, or other onion
  • Fresh herbs
  • Salt + Pepper

First, get all the filling out of the  sausage casing. (You can also chop it into small pieces instead.) In a skillet over medium high, begin to caramelize the leeks or onions. Once they become translucent, about 5 minutes, add in the sausage and  cook. Once the chicken begins  to brown, add in the mushrooms and fresh herb. I like thyme for this dish, your choice! Season to taste.

Meanwhile wash your head of lettuce. Pull off each leaf, these will become your cups then palace on a serving  platter. When the filling has browned nicely and the chicken is cooked, spoon filling into a serving bowl. 

This is an interactive dinner! Serve the lettuce cups and fall filing separately…or you’ll get  soggy cups. This dinner is fun for the whole family. 

Suggestions:

  • Swap in a pork sausage
  • Play with the other veggies in the filling
