Buffalo Wing Turkey Lettuce Wraps
(from kylerhea’s recipe box)
barely adapted from Sweet Treats and More
I used some blue cheese crumbles and a tablespoon of Litehouse Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette just like my SIL, but don’t feel like you have to have the dressing to make these…they are good with just the crumbles too.
