PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps are seriously yummy!! I was so happy to get this PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps Copy Cat version to try out over the weekend… I know it’s supposed to be an appetizer but we had it for a meal. It’s not EXACTLY the same as PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps but pretty darn close and really good. There’s not a lot of oil and if we substitute agave nectar for the sugar then were getting lower calories too and it still tastes just like original Wraps! Makes for a great recipe for all those New Year’s resolutions we’re making this week
