Peanut Free Basil-Parsley Romaine Lettuce Cups with Carrot

These vibrant lettuce cups are a fresh, herb-forward bite that feels light yet satisfying — the kind of thing you want to bring to a gathering or throw together on a weeknight when you need something bright and easy. Finely diced carrot gives each cup a gentle crunch, while a generous handful of basil and flat-leaf parsley makes the filling taste alive and fragrant. The dressing is a simple whisk of apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, and sea salt, and it ties everything together with a subtle sweet-tangy balance that keeps you reaching for another cup. Romaine leaves do the heavy lifting as natural vessels, holding the filling neatly and adding a cool, crisp contrast to the herby interior. A scatter of torn mint over the top is optional, but it adds one more layer of freshness that really elevates the whole platter. Every ingredient here is straightforward and whole, so there's no need to scan labels or worry about hidden additives sneaking into your meal. Serve them immediately after assembling and they'll disappear fast.
