Always on the run, I still think how to make a quick yet very filling and nutritious and easiest meal. This simple Chicken Lettuce Boats recipe idea has all I need: easy-to-get ingredients that are usually in my fridge. Chicken, cherry tomatoes, ancient grains (I used buckwheat in this recipe) and a lot of our favorite spices and hers like garlic, turmeric, pepper.
These filling boats, loaded with protein and flavor, were devoured in no time! I made plenty of them to make sure everyone could get seconds if they really liked them. Here it is one of the easiest meals ever to make to feed your family, big or small.
