- Cook for around 5 more minutes to fully brown meat and cook down veggies.
- Add homemade fajita seasoning and a few tablespoons of water. Mix, making sure everything is fully coated.
- Let mixture cook down for a few more minutes to thicken the sauce. Add more water as needed. This all depends on how saucy you want your lettuce wraps.
- Once fully cooked, remove from heat and set aside.
- Next, prepare avocado crema. Place avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, and water into a high-speed food processor. Blend on high until smooth. You may need to add more water depending on how thick you want your crema.
- Assemble lettuce wraps by scooping about 1/3 cup of fajita filling on top of a piece of iceburg lettuce and then drizzling with avocado crema.
