Macadamia Free Rosemary-Apple Mini Lettuce Wraps
These little wraps are a genuinely exciting weeknight bite — crisp butter lettuce cups cradling a savory-sweet turkey filling that smells incredible the moment it hits the pan. Shallots and garlic build a fragrant base, then fresh rosemary, ginger, and turmeric layer in warmth and depth that feels anything but ordinary. The diced apple is the real surprise here, adding a subtle sweetness and a little texture that plays beautifully against the savory meat. Coconut aminos and a splash of apple cider vinegar pull everything together with a light, tangy gloss that keeps the filling from feeling heavy. Every single ingredient in this recipe is naturally free from tree nuts of any kind, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden additions sneaking into your meal. Scallions and fresh parsley on top add a pop of color and brightness right before serving. These are the kind of handheld bites that disappear fast, so consider doubling the filling if you're feeding a crowd.
