Chinese lettuce wraps. Russian cabbage rolls. Greek dolmades. There is something special about savory goodness packaged in an edible wrapper. This bean-and-corn medley has lots of great Tex-Mex flavor, but you won't miss the chips. Crisp-tender butter lettuce leaves are a sturdy enough vehicle for getting all that goodness to your mouth. Though you could substitute iceberg or romaine lettuce here too. When fresh corn is at its peak, cut the kernels from one ear of cooked corn for this recipe. Otherwise, canned or thawed frozen corn will do.
