Thai Lettuce Wraps:
- Thai Peanut sauce (see below)
- 1/2 c. cooked brown rice
- 1 c. cubed tofu
- 1 cucumber, shredded
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 6 lettuce leaves
- bean sprouts (optional). we use micro-greens instead since we can't ever find bean sprouts.
- 3 green onions (optional)
- fresh cilantro (optional)
- juice of lime wedges (optional)
Spoon all the ingredients, except lime wedges, into lettuce wraps. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top if desired. Drizzle with Thai Peanut Sauce and serve.
Thai Peanut Sauce:
- 1 T. PB
- 1 T. warm water
- 1 T. sweet chili sauce
- juice of 1 lime wedge
- 2 tsp. soy sauce
- 1 1/4 tsp. rice vinegar
- few light dashes of garlic powder (granulated)
- few light dashes of ginger
- 1 to 2 drops Sriracha (Asian hot sauce) (we've never used this)
- 1 T. nondairy milk
In small bowl, combine PB, water, chili sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic pwdr, ground ginger and Sriracha. Microwave for 20 seconds, whisk, then whisk in nondairy milk. Taste, adding more hot sauce as desired.
**note: we always at least double the sauce recipe, and we never measure exactly the veggies. Just put whatever. It's so easy to pack up and have for lunch the next day, and my kids really love it!
