Moo Shu Lettuce Cups
I took ordinary ground beef and turned it into a new classic. Sweet and savory flavors that make this dish a dinnertime favorite. We love the meat mixture served in flour tortillas, too! —Christine Keating, Norwalk, California

Reviews
Just made thus for dinner. This is so good. My wife is really picky, she loved it. I bought lettuce to use but somehow when I got home it was bad. I made white rice and topped it with the mixture. Excellent.
This was delicious! Had to add a dash of salt and put in diced water chestnuts for texture. I put the moo shu over power greens. Good quick dish -- my family was tired of spaghetti and meatloaf, so I have a new family favorite! Thanks!
