Lettuce Wraps

Notes

This is a great carpool night meal! I generally make it and let everyone eat as they come home from their 1 million activities…okay, it’s just dance and volleyball, but it seems like a million! This can be kept warm so everyone can enjoy it when they are finally home!
You can use ground beef for this or whatever ground meat you have. I actually mix and match whatever I have to make as much as I need for that night.
Make sure you make enough! These are delicious and go very fast!
You can use any type of lettuce you have handy.
Make sure to have extra hoisin sauce to add on top when you are making them.
Got leftovers? Try my Lettuce Wrap Wontons – they are amazing.
