25 large organic lettuce leaves

For the filling:

3 links of organic chicken sausage, diced (I used one with quinoa, carrots, & turmeric)

½ yellow onion, minced

2 garlic cloves, minced or ground

⅓ cup roasted red peppers

½ tbsp olive oil

For the sauce:

2 tbsp tahini

2 tbsp stone ground mustard

1 tbsp good quality olive oil (The Crescent Olive's Cobrancosa)

1 tbsp infused balsamic vinegar (The Crescent Olive's Neapolitan Herb dark balsamic)

water, to reach desired consistency

Wash and dry lettuce thoroughly. Set aside.

Add olive oil to skillet. Saute minced onions for 3-4 minutes, until they become translucent. Add garlic puree and chicken. Saute until browned. Add roasted peppers, turn off heat, and let sit for a few minutes.

To make dressing, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Add water to reach desired consistency, season to taste. (These amounts are estimates, as I didn't exactly measure as I made it. Get creative!)

To serve, place lettuce leaves on a serving plate.
Portion filling on each guest's plate.
Serve sauce in a small bowl on the table.

To assemble, place a small amount of filling on each leaf, top with a little bit of dressing, pick up, and enjoy!
I like to serve this alongside cucumbers for dipping also!
