RECIPE : LEFTOVER CHICKEN TACO LETTUCE WRAP (that's a wrap)

I baked an entire chicken last night and had me some leftovers.  What to do? I know, make me a taco but without the bread. You can choose to add what you want to this but I kept it simple. Quick and filling now off to do some roofing :(



Chicken
1  red pepper, diced
1 cup  frozen corn
1/2 cup salsa (I made my own)
1/2 cup mayonaise
Salt
Onion Powder
Garlic powder
Cumin

Season chicken with a dusting of sea salt, onion powder and garlic. Bake at 350º F until internal temp reaches 165º F or just use last nights leftovers like I did.

In a medium sized bowl, mix together corn, salsa, Mayo, red pepper, dusting of cumin and diced chicken. Serve on a leaf, like a taco or on a bed of lettuce with some tortilla chips and have a taco salad. 
(Optional) but still yummy. Mix everything in with some cauliflower rice and wrap that up like a burrito.  Add extra salsa.  You're getting lots of veggie, a bit of protein, fat from mayo and carbs in the form of corn and salsa.  (Optional) If you haven't cooked chicken just throw all the meat and veggies in a pan.  Fry them up and top with a mix of salsa and mayo or sour cream.
