Chef's Note

For the best texture, make sure your avocados are ripe but still firm enough to hold their shape when diced. If preparing ahead, keep the turkey mixture, avocado mixture, and lettuce leaves separate until ready to serve to prevent wilting. The yogurt sauce can be substituted with dairy-free alternatives for a completely dairy-free option.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 cloves, minced garlic

  • 1/2 small, finely diced red onion

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 juiced and zested lime

  • 2 ripe, diced avocados

  • 1 cup, quartered cherry tomatoes

  • 1/4 cup, chopped fresh cilantro

  • 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh mint

  • 1 head, leaves separated butter lettuce

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt

Instructions
  • 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1/2 diced red onion, sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

  • 2

    Add 1 pound of ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.

  • 3

    Season the turkey with 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute more.

  • 4

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in half the lime juice and zest. Set aside to cool slightly.

  • 5

    In a medium bowl, gently combine 2 diced avocados, 1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 2 tablespoons chopped mint. Drizzle with the remaining lime juice and season with a pinch of salt.

  • 6

    In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup Greek yogurt with a pinch of lime zest for a quick sauce.

  • 7

    To assemble, take butter lettuce leaves and fill each with a spoonful of the turkey mixture, top with the avocado-herb mixture, and a dollop of the yogurt sauce.

  • 8

    Serve immediately, arranging 2-3 lettuce wraps per person.
