The lettuce wraps at P.F. Changs are one of the few things I like there and when I saw a recipe for a similar dish in Cooking Light I new we had to give it a try. Even with the little bit of leftover filling went fast. Scott ate 3 large wraps and I had 1 1/2 and the dogs sat staring and drooling while we were eating this. It must have smelled good.
I definitely prefer cabbage to lettuce, it stays crispier and I feel like it holds the filling in better. I am a messy eater and these stayed together and I only had a few drips of sauce on my plate. Shocking that it didn’t end up on the shirt I was wearing.
