How To Make moo shu rolls

Step 1

Combine beef & pork in 5- or 6-quart slow cooker; scramble it around to mix it together. Add mushroom, onion, and garlic. Mix broth, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and 5-spice powder in small bowl; pour over beef/pork mixture. Cover and cook until flavors are blended and sauce is slightly thickened, 4 - 5 hours on high, or 8 - 10 hours on low.

Step 2

Spoon one generous tablespoon of the beef/pork mixture in the center of each lettuce leaf. Top each with about 1 T. of carrots, 1 T. sliced scallion, and 1 T. or thinly-siced radishes. Roll up and eat!
Step 3

Weight Watchers calculates this as 2 Points per serving, and each serving is 2 roll-ups. Added side-dishes will, of course, be extra points.
