Cashew Free Ginger-Scallion Mushroom Lettuce Cups

These lettuce cups are the kind of meal that feels light and fresh but still genuinely satisfying — crisp butter lettuce cradling a savory, aromatic filling that hits every note. Ground turkey gets cooked down with finely chopped cremini mushrooms, which bulk up the filling and add a deep, meaty texture that makes each bite feel substantial. Grated ginger, fresh garlic, and turmeric layer in warmth and brightness, while coconut aminos and a splash of apple cider vinegar bring a glossy, tangy-savory finish that ties everything together. The scallions do double duty here — the white parts go in early to build flavor, and the green tops get stirred in at the end for a pop of color and freshness. For anyone navigating tree nut allergies, this recipe is naturally free of cashews and other nuts without any substitutions required — every ingredient on the list is straightforward and easy to source. A squeeze of lime and a handful of cilantro over the top right before serving takes the whole thing from weeknight dinner to something you'd genuinely be proud to put on the table.
