GINGER TZATZIKI CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS

GINGER TZATZIKI CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS
There is something delightfully fresh about this dish that makes it a great springtime choice for your dinner table.  Olivia found this recipe at www.cookingpanda.com.  It is loaded with lots of bold flavors like soy sauce and ginger.  The cucumber, dill and Greek yogurt blend together to make a smooth and flavorful addition to this dish.  Placing all of this on crispy Romaine lettuce leaves makes it a yummy choice for lunch or dinner. 

You can enjoy these wraps and get your fill without feeling stuffed.  If you are craving something fresh and tasty, try these.  You'll love them.
