Grilled Shrimp Lettuce Wraps Recipe
Here’s a super yummy recipe that is great for an appetizers or a meal. This is another great clean eating recipe. I love the bursts of sweetness that come through from the sweet bell peppers, and the spicy cooling sensation of the sour cream. I used Bibb lettuce in this recipe, mostly because it looks super cute as a holder for it, but I like the slight bitter taste that it has. I don’t know about you, but I can shrimp all day long, unless you’re allergic to shellfish…then I don’t recommend it. I hope you enjoy this recipe, and the other clean eating recipes I’ve been sharing this month with you!

I don’t eat shrimp but these do look delicious! I’ll pass on this recipe to friends. Thanks!
I love shrimp, and though I have never had a lettuce wrap, I know they’d be much healthier than a tortilla or other carb. I may have to try this!
Wow, my mouth is watering! These look both yummy and healthy!
These look so delicious! I bet the peppers add just the right amount of sweetness!
Thanks for this healthy recipe David. I’m looking for good ones like this- I will be trying this one!!
I have had chicken lettuce wraps before and loved them … I don’t do seafood but they are pretty! and I only do colored peppers myself.. Red /Orange/Yellow.. Green are just.. no.. lol
We love lettuce wraps for all kinds of “salads” and meats. I never thought to use shrimp but definitely adding to our menu plan soon. They look and sound delicious!
I’ve been using lettuce leaves as my “bread” for sustenance, so to speak lol. Super yummy!
