wilson0@hotmail.comThese lettuce cups are a great way to use up leftover ground turkey. I also like to add some chopped water chestnuts and bamboo shoots to the filling for extra crunch.

t.a0@gmail.comThese lettuce cups were a disappointment. The filling was bland and the lettuce cups were soggy. I won't be making them again.

j_doran21@hotmail.comI love these lettuce cups! They're so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I usually make them with ground chicken, but I've also made them with ground turkey and they're just as good.

shaheir_h96@gmail.comThe spicy ground turkey filling was delicious, but I found the lettuce cups to be a bit flimsy. Next time, I'll try using a different type of lettuce, like romaine or butter lettuce.
