    Nice. That's a feast.
    Is that a fish fillet in the foil?
    Yep, nothing special. Just some cod but was good

    Grilled Opah tacos with pineapple salsa. Left over from last night. Still delicious though.

    ^^^ looks delicious.  Tonight it’s pancakes with maple and black currant syrup served with eggs over-easy and bacon.

    Shredded buffalo chicken, celery, onion, blue cheese in a lettuce wrap. I love everything buffalo chicken and a bit healthier option than with a tortilla wrap.

    I love greens, loooooove greens.
    I have no problem with this, especially as an appetizer.  Looks delicious 👌

    That being said, here comes the but...
    I'm tired of seeing people act like you can replace a tortilla, taco shell or bread with a piece of lettuce lol
    It's not a replacement, it's not similar, it isn't just as good lol

    ^ I'm with you!  I see people getting sandwiches in lettuce wraps.  No way.  Not this guy!  Give me a nice piece of bread or I'm taking a pass.  My wife made these out of nowhere or they probably would have been on a tortilla.  But I did appreciate them and they were tasty little snacks.

    I eat some stuff with just lettuce and it can be very good.

    👍 Like I said, I have no problem with it as a food, but don't pretend it's a substitute of equal value, because that's bullshit lol
    Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining lol

    I use lettuce as a wrap at least once a week, usually twice, for ground chicken/turkey.  Sometimes just make a bowl with brown/white rice, but it's nice to cut out some calories on an easy weeknight meal.

    I’m a lettuce lover too! On its own, on a sandwich, charred romaine with garlic and Caesar dressing...mmm.

    Never as a wrap though, except for Chinese food.

    Wrap up the tuna salad in iceberg.  One of the few times I choose iceberg over romaine.
    (Boston Bibb over the others if available)

    Usually this route when we do ground chicken. Hoisin, soy sauce, etc.
