Season 08 - Lunch / S08L04
Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps
Story
There’s something magical about the crunch of fresh lettuce mixed with the creamy goodness of chicken salad. On this sunny afternoon, Don Luis stood by his rustic kitchen island, prepping a light lunch for his grandkids. He had leftover roast chicken from the night before and a garden full of crisp butter lettuce. As he worked, he told stories of how, back in his hometown, meals like these were made with whatever you had—and always with love. With Luna curled up near his feet and the smell of fresh herbs dancing in the air, Don Luis wrapped each leaf with a little smile. A dash of paprika, a spoonful of mayo, and a sprinkle of joy—it was simple, tasty, and perfect for sharing. Time, Calories & Cost
