I’m such a foodie. I’m a foodie that desperately wants to eat healthier. But I find that some healthy recipes just aren’t great tasting. Feels like I’m settling. These recipes don’t make me feel that way.

- 1¼ lb 96% lean ground beef (or any ground meat you prefer)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup onion, roughly chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, diced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, diced
- ¾ cup water chestnuts, roughly chopped
- 5 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- Bibb lettuce
- Optional toppings:
- shredded carrots
- roughly chopped peanuts
- toasted sesame seeds
- chopped green onion
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan. Add in the ground beef and break it apart with a cooking spoon into smaller pieces. Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook till no longer pink. Set aside on a separate plate.
- In the same pan, cook the onion, garlic, and ginger for 3-4 minutes. Add the meat and water chestnuts into the pan.
- Stir in the hoisin sauce and soy sauce and cook everything together for a few minutes.
- To serve, place the meat mixture in the lettuce cups and top with shredded carrots, peanuts, sesame seeds, green onion, and extra hoisin sauce.

You know all of the shows, "Best Of" magazine, newspaper and internet articles? I want to know if they are really worth the fuss. I'm trying to find out if I'd recommend them to MY friends and family. And as often as I can, I'll give you the source of who gave ME the original recommendation.
