Creating incredible Mexican Lettuce Wraps is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Cook the ground turkey or beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add Spices: Stir in cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure the meat is evenly coated with spices.
3. Combine Ingredients: Add black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
4. Prepare Lettuce: While the filling is cooking, carefully wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Choose the largest leaves for holding the filling.
5. Assemble Wraps: Spoon the meat and vegetable mixture onto the lettuce leaves, filling them generously.
6. Top with Fixings: Add diced avocado, shredded cheese (if using), and salsa or hot sauce to each wrap.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh cilantro on top for extra flavor and a pop of color.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your wraps right away, while the filling is warm and the lettuce is crisp.
