Asian Lettuce Wraps

2 c. raw walnuts or pecans*
1/2 c. carrot, shredded
2 T. fresh ginger, minced
4 garlic cloves, minced
8 oz. can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
4 green onions, chopped
1/2 c. fresh snow peas, chopped
1/4 c. hoisin sauce
1/3 c. teriyaki sauce
3 T.  peanut butter with cinnamon
1 T. rice wine vinegar
1 T. oil
12 bib lettuce leaves

Add first 7 ingredients together in food processor and pulse until ground to a crumbly texture. Do not puree. Place mixture in a large glass bowl, and add all other ingredients. Stir until well blended. Divide among lettuce leaves.

*1 1/2 lb.cooked and drained ground turkey may be used instead of the walnuts, if desired. Cooking other ingredients with drained turkey will make a totally different tasting dish.


**wrapping lettuce in paper toweling will keep it from rusting. I have also used the fresh lock vegetable bags to prevent rusting.
