Cheeseburger Lettuce Wraps
Cheeseburger Lettuce Wraps are everything you love about a burger but without the carbs. You won’t even miss the bread with how delicious these are!
Cheeseburger Lettuce Wraps… Mmmm. Why are they so dang delicious? Even when I’m trying to eat lighter I still won’t deny myself a cheeseburger. That’s when these lettuce wrapped babies make an appearance!
A flavorful burger topped with cheese, tomato, and a mouth-watering spread is always a winning combo. Wrap it up in a nice piece of lettuce and you won’t even miss the bun. I know you should not use lean ground beef if you want juicy burgers, but when I’m trying to watch calories I use 93% lean beef for these and they are still amazing as ever. I add a few extra things that make these burgers so yummy!
