The copycat recipe you can make at home in 20 minutes. It tastes better than ever!
I love lettuce wraps. Because they are low in carbohydrates, I can eat them without feeling guilty. If it is an exact PF Chang’s replica and can be made within 20 minutes or less – well, that means I will have this five times a week.
I kid you not. It’s the easiest and quickest meal that you can make. If you are short on cooking, you can even have this meal on the table in under 15 minutes. It’s also budget-friendly, and you can easily triple or double the recipe if needed. What else could you want?
