The inspiration for these butter lettuce wraps came to me one day when I was browsing the farmers market.

I also had some leftover sweet potato puree from a previous recipe, so I thought I would add that to the mix. The result was these delicious and nutritious wraps that are perfect for a quick and easy meal.
