One thing you should know about me is that I hate leftovers.  I get sick of eating the same food over and over again.  I need variety in my daily eating. Well, here’s a little secret…I made this meal two nights in a row and I could probably eat it again tonight.  Coming from me, that says alot.

It is the combination of sweet summery corn, creamy avocado, fire roasted zucchini and red bell peppers in a salty, tangy cilantro lime dressing that really get’s me.  How’s that for a description?  And it is called succotash.  That’s such a great word!

So enjoy. And I hope you make this over and over again.

This is my go to recipe whenever I am feel a little puffy.  You can either use ground chicken or chicken breast that you put through the food processor.  It has that Asian tang that I love all wrapped up in lettuce.  The best part is this whole meal is just about 250 calories.
