Lettuce Wraps
These are my families new favorite!!! My girls LOVE tofu & tacos so I thought I would combine the two worlds and make tofu tacos :)
They are really light and flavourful. We like to keep it simple and just add few veggies, tofu and or chicken, homemade salsa, vermicelli noddles and a homemade peanut sauce to give them lots of falvour. They are great for the whole family.
