Asian-Style Ground Beef Cabbage Wraps image

All the flavors you love in "crack slaw" are here in a tidy cabbage wrap! Using ground beef, some Asian flavors, and toppings, create a tasty lunch that each person can customize. Don't want any heat? Leave out the Sriracha. Want more heat? Add some crushed red pepper. Can't stand cilantro? Use fresh parsley, instead. Make these the way you like them. Serve with additional coconut aminos or soy sauce, if desired.

CABBAGE WRAPS



Cabbage Wraps image

This is a delicious recipe for traditional cabbage rolls. In summer when tomatoes are plentiful, I use peeled fresh tomatoes instead of canned diced tomatoes to reduce the sodium. -Dolly Mullen of Langley, Washington

TOFU CABBAGE OR LETTUCE WRAPS



Tofu Cabbage or Lettuce Wraps image

Tasty tofu recipe I came up with when tofu was on sale and I'd bought a bunch. Even Confirmed Tofu Hater (DD) likes this. A good way to drain tofu is to swaddle it in lots of paper towels and then rest something heavy on top for at least 20 minutes to press all the water out.
