How to Make An Easy Keto Lettuce Boat

How to Make An Easy Keto Lettuce Boat

Earlier this month, Adams Media released The DIRTY, LAZY, KETO 5-Ingredient Cookbook – 100 Easy-Peasy Recipes Low in Carbs, Big on Flavor. It is a new cookbook from Stephanie Laska’s DIRTY, LAZY, KETO series. (Stephanie has lost and kept off 140 pounds/half of her body weight with her keto dishes). All of the recipes have five or less ingredients besides salt, pepper, olive oil, and a few other kitchen staples. The recipes – from snacks to desserts – are also all 10g net carbs or less per serving. I especially enjoyed the lettuce boat recipe that is included.

My review book has some great recipes. I primarily like recipes with real ingredients. (I don’t like most artificial sweeteners, sugar-free foods, flour substitutes and the like so I skip those recipes.) Fortunately, there are plenty of recipes with “regular” ingredients like this lettuce boat recipe that I am sharing below.

Lettuce Boat Recipe

Romaine boats are surprisingly sturdy. Even when filled to the brim with cheesy queso, they still won’t leak or fall apart! Perhaps due to novelty (or crunch), my kids actually prefer romaine leaves over hamburger buns. I make it a point to use them for all sorts of meals—sandwiches, tacos, wraps. No matter what your age, you’ll have fun filling and eating this appetizing cheeseburger boat.
