What I love about lettuce wraps is that you really do taste more of your filling. Especially due to the fact that lettuce is mainly tasteless. I don’t miss carb-heavy things like wraps or rolls now that I’ve tried wrapping my breadless “sandwiches” with lettuce leaves. I have been wanting to try making these for a long time, but many recipes included ingredients I just don’t use enough to warrant buying an entire container. I just wanted something simple and delicious, using what I already had in my pantry, and this was the result. A tasty meal that rivals restaurant versions.
P.F. Changs’ lettuce wraps are very popular. It was where I tried my very first lettuce wrap, but I actually think they’re a little too salty. I prefer the ones they serve up at The Cheesecake Factory if I’m ordering them out. However I bet you will enjoy my lettuce wraps so much more, and they’re really inexpensive to make yourself.
