Asian Beef in Lettuce Cups - 10g Carbs, 3g Fiber
  
  From: The South Beach Diet Super Quick Cookbook
  
  Lettuce leaves make the perfect "bread" for these Phase 1 "sandwiches." 
  If you prefer, you can substitute snow peas for the snap peas and use 
  any type of sprouts in place of the mung bean sprouts.
  
  Prep Time: 5 min 
  Cook Time: 10 min 
  Total Time: 15 min
  Servings: 4
  
  2 Tbsp soy sauce, less sodium
  1 Tbsp dark sesame oil
  1/2 tsp ginger, ground
  1 lb beef, sirloin, cut into 1/2-inch wide strips
  1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
  8 oz sugar snap peas, strings removed
  2 cups radicchio, shredded
  2 cups mung bean sprouts
  2 Tbsp rice vinegar
  12 leaves Boston lettuce
  
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, and 
  ginger. Add the beef and toss to coat.
  
  2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high 
  heat. Add half the beef and cook until browned, about 1 minute on 
  each side. With a slotted spoon, transfer to a large bowl. Repeat 
  with the remaining beef.
  
  3. In a small pan of boiling water, cook the snap peas for 30 seconds. 
  Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again. Transfer the snap peas 
  to the bowl with beef.
  
  4. Add the radicchio, sprouts, and vinegar and toss well. Divide the 
  beef mixture evenly among the lettuce leaves and serve. Enjoy 3 lettuce 
  cups per serving.
