Crockpot Asian Lettuce Wraps

My crock pot is going to need a break soon, it's been working harder than I have lately... OR I can continue to use and abuse it's magical powers. With great power comes great food. Tonight I decided to go for a low carb asian inspired dish. I didn't have some ingredients, but I love the way it tasted anyway. When I look at recipes and see that I don't have a key ingredient I just frantically look up substitutes, or read what the flavor does to the recipe and find something comparable. So here's my tweeked recipe for Asian Lettuce Wraps.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground chicken
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 4 oz water chestnuts
• 1 tsp fresh ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1 red bell pepper chopped
• 1/2 yellow onion
• 2 scallions chopped
• Romain or iceburg lettuce
• 1 avocado sliced
• Sriracha for flavor

There's nothing like sitting back while your crockpot does all the work, watching the sun set on the mountain and listening to some good ol' fashioned country music:

Directions:

1. In a crockpot place all ingredients minus, scallions, chestnuts, lettuce, avocado and sriracha. Cook on high for 1 hour or on low for 2. 
2. When crockpot is ready add scallions and chestnuts, stir and let stand until heated up.
3. Take leaf of lettuce and place ground beef mixture on soft end, roll up into a burrito shape or fold over like a taco. 
4. Add you avocado and sriracha to each wrap.
5. Serve!

Well have fun my little slow cookers and food lovers. Happy Eatings Everyone!
