Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps



Inline image 1

1/2 can of Kirkland Canned Chicken Breast
1 Tbsp Best Foods Light Mayo
Onion Salt (to my liking)
3 Iceberg Lettuce Leaves

Calories: 265
Carbs: 2 grams

Options: I would normally add some chopped celery to add a crunch but I was out...but this wouldn't add many calories or carbs
Also, if you can afford the calories you could also add 1 Tbsp of sliced almonds (52 cal. 1 g of Carbs) or some grapes would be yummy too!
