Crock Pot Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Hello all! Well things have been busy lately and I have been unable to post. I have been trying to take note and pictures of my recipes anyway, so I'll have a few to post today. We are in a new location for my husbands work, and are staying in an apartment for a couple months. It's been strange not having my own kitchen to cook in! While we've been here I have been trying to make more of an effort to eat "clean" and make nutritious meals for the family. I'll start with lettuce wraps! I have been trying to use the crock pot a lot lately. For one thing, it's easy. You can throw whatever you want in there in the morning and not have to worry about dinner for the rest of the day! Since we are more or less on "vacation" from our normal lives (ok, maybe just the girls and I, Clayton still has to work), it's nice to spend less time in the kitchen and more time outside enjoying the pool and playground!

You will need: *3 chicken breast *1 8 oz can bamboo shoots *1 8 oz can water chestnuts, finely chopped *1 cup diced mushrooms *2-3 celery stalks, diced *1/2 cup gluten free peanut butter *1/2 cup gluten free soy sauce *1 tablespoon brown sugar *1/2 cup finely diced or shredded carrots *Ice Burg lettuce, washed and peeled into cups I placed all ingredients except the last two in the crock pot and let it cook all day (about 8 hours). I did go back and stir the ingredients a couple times throughout the day, to make sure all the flavors were mixing and the peanut butter was resolving into the rest of the dish. Before serving, I transfered everything to another dish and shredded the chicken. Then I added to carrots (not cooked, I did this for the texture, to add a little crunch) and mixed well. Add this to your lettuce bowls and that's it! Enjoy!
