Ingredients

1: cup Fiber One® original bran cereal

2: tablespoons soy sauce plus water to make 1/2 cup

1: package (20 oz) lean (at least 93%) ground turkey

1 1/2: cups julienne (matchstick-cut) carrots

1: cup chopped onion

1/3: cup Thai peanut sauce

2: tablespoons lime juice

2: to 4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

15: leaves Bibb or iceberg lettuce

Directions

1 Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and finely crush with rolling pin or meat mallet (or finely crush in food processor).
2 In large bowl, mix crushed cereal and soy sauce-water mixture. Let stand 5 minutes.
3 Thoroughly mix turkey into cereal mixture. Spray 10-inch skillet with cooking spray. Add turkey mixture, carrots and onion; cook and stir about 5 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink.
4 In small bowl, mix peanut sauce and lime juice until blended. Stir into turkey mixture. Cover; cook 5 to 7 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally, until carrots are crisp-tender and flavors are blended. Stir in cilantro.
