I just made this with my husband and OH MY, they were delicious. We have a tradition to have an “appe-dinner” every few months were we just eat appetizers for dinner. Today we decided to try these wraps and they are definitely a keeper! To make them slightly more filling, I added about 1/3 cup of chickpeas to the stuffing. So good! Can’t wait to make again.

In reply to Kate. I am looking forward to trying this. My kids love the tradition lettuce wraps but my husband and I aren't eating meat so I'm looking for an alternative for us. This is on my list for this week

These are awesome! We did a few changes second time around – only 1 Tbsp honey, added a generous squeeze of lime before serving, and just the teeniest tiniest drop of sesame oil to the sauce.

This was delicious– thanks for a light and delicious dinner. I cooked some Thai Jasmine rice on the side and with that added to the wraps they were filling enough for dinner….stirred in some green onions and cilantro for color… had some Sriracha on the side for those who like spicey. :-)

These *are* just like P.F. Chang’s lettuce wraps! Really love the inclusion of pecans in this recipe–their texture and meatiness is perfect. Starting prepping the veggies before I realized I was out of tamari, so I MacGyvered a substitute with pantry items, and while it wasn’t vegetarian, the flavor worked. Looking forward to trying this again with tamari or coconut aminos!

I’m in the process of making this for the second time. It is excellent. I shared it with my neighbor and now she keeps bugging me to make more. I like my neighbor so I’m making one for her today.

I double the amount of sauce and save half of it to use to pour over other recipes.

Fried the onion then carrot followed by celery in light oil to bring out more flavor for about 5 min. Then added a bit of water and a hint of sauce and scallions and simmered for 15min.

Made the sauce using low sodium soy( That’s all we had) in lesser amount and added siracha and apples to it for more of a bit.
Added the sauce at the end with walnut/ peanut mix, stirred and left covered for a few minutes.

Really good. Thanks!

I have made a ton of Cookie and Kate recipes starting in college, and this one is another fantastic dish. My boyfriend and I are vegetarian and these flavors are just so delicious, and 100% comparable to non-veg lettuce wraps my family used to have. The pecans end up having a meaty texture with a nutty, delicious flavor that I absolutely love. We added extra pecans the second time we made it and it was so good!
