INGREDIENTS:
1 or 2 heads of Butter or Romaine lettuce

1 (8 ounce)can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1 tbs dark sesame oil
1 bunch green onions, chopped

4. Return the cooked turkey back to the skillet, stir in green onions and sesame oil. Cook until heats through, just a few minutes. You are done!
