Wheat Free Lemon-Dill Mini Lettuce Wraps
Bright, herby, and refreshingly light, these little wraps are the kind of appetizer or lunch that disappears from the platter before you've even finished arranging them. Crisp butter lettuce cups stand in for any bread or tortilla, making the whole thing naturally free of wheat without any swaps or specialty products required — just real, whole ingredients doing all the work. The filling is a punchy mix of tender shredded chicken, cool cucumber, and crunchy celery, all tossed in a zippy lemon-ginger dressing that ties everything together beautifully. Fresh dill and chives bring an herby brightness that feels almost fancy, but the assembly couldn't be more straightforward. Because every component is clean and unprocessed, there's no label-reading stress or hidden gluten to worry about. Serve them as a party starter, a weekday lunch, or a light dinner — they're versatile enough to earn a permanent spot in your regular rotation.
