Lettuce wraps are a light yet satisfying meal packed with protein and fiber. This version uses lean ground chicken, baby bella mushrooms, onions, and carrots for a flavorful filling. The star is the teriyaki marinade made with clean ingredients, adding a savory-sweet touch. Quick to make and perfect for a fresh, wholesome bite.

Add ginger and garlic, mixing until incorporated.
Add shredded carrots and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in the teriyaki marinade and mix well.
