Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

• 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
• 3 Tbs rice vinegar
• 1 1/2 Tbs sesame oil
• 1/3 cup chopped water chestnuts (consider using the whole can)
• 1/4 cup chow mein noodles (consider using more)
• 1 carrot, shredded
• 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
• 1/2 cup shredded green cabbage
• butter lettuce leaves

Mix the vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, water chestnuts, noodles, and cooked chicken in a bowl. Set aside.

Mix up a dipping sauce. 

• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 3 Tbs hot water
• 1 tsp lime juice
• 2-3 tsp plum sauce

A second dipping sauce.

• Penzey’s Bangkok spice blend (a few BIG shakes)
• soy sauce (maybe a tablespoon)
• lime juice (maybe 1/2 a tablespoon)
• plum sauce (maybe 1 teaspoon)

Pull the lettuce leaves off and rinse and dry.

Cook the chicken mixture until warm, in a small saucepan or in the microwave if you use one. It doesn’t need to be hot, just warm.

Serve everything at the table and let everyone build their wraps, laying a lettuce leave on the plate, spooning some chicken mixture on that, then topping with some cabbage and carrots. Roll up like a burrito and dip into the sauce(s) of your choice. Or spoon some of the sauce down the top and then roll it up.

Now,  I know I am not the only one that has had the extreme urge to put an ex on blast on Facebook. What better way to tell the world to run like hell from your womanizing, “low-performing” former love than to do a tell all on the biggest social networking site on the net. But oh ye status updaters and wall writers…there are rules to this game.  MSNBC has compiled a list of 10 rules to abide by when discussing failed relationships on Facebook.  Click here to check it out.

David Plouffe gets a 7 figure book deal to detail his experiences as Barack Obama’s campaign manager. Well, why the hell not!  First of all, he ran the best campaign of my lifetime, absolutely flawless, he deserves something extra for it (they don’t give Oscar’s or anything like that for jobs like this). And second, everyone else is profiting off of their experience…  Click here for more details.
