"Accidental" Amazing Lettuce Cups

We were staying out at the beach last week, and me and my mom wanted to whip up a quick, and healthy lunch for everyone. My mom decided she would cook it all, how great is she, so we quickly thought of all the ingredients we had to work with, and threw it all in a pan!The result was simple, successful, and now one of my favorite dishes.:)
1 lb. ground organic turkey or beef...(i'm sure chicken would be delicious too)
2 bell peppers...one green, one yellow
1onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bag of shredded cabbage
2-4 tbls. braggs liquid aminos( this takes the place of soy sauce and/or salt.)
These are very versatile so you can make them any flavor you like....for a mexican flare add 2 tsp. chili powder and 1 tsp. cumin....I personally like to add 1tbls thai chili paste, and 1 tsp. ground ginger.
Heat 2 tbls coconut, or grapeseed oil, add in the peppers, onion, and garlic. Cook until tender..add the meat, cook until it's done, then mash it all with a potato masher, or not if you like big chunks. My family likes the meat ground fine:) Add in the cabbage last and cook for another 5 minutes on medium high. Serve with a head of iceberg lettuce and a couple lime wedges:) Bon Appetit!
