TURKEY LETTUCE WRAPS ( PF CHANG )
A copycat recipe from Damn Delicious with very few changes . So easy to fix at home, I was amazed ! This smells so great cooking that is it a good thing it is ready in less than 10 minutes. Instead of Butter Lettuce leaves, I use Large Romaine leaves that you can easily load and enjoy ! I serve with brown rice , which helps you make sure you get every little bit of this awesome filling.
