These lettuce wraps are easy to put together, vegetarian, and healthy! The crunch of the lettuce pairs nicely with the soft tofu. If you aren't a fan of tofu, it can easily be substituted for veggies, cubed chicken or other meat!

-1 package of firm tofu (I make sure to drain mine in a colander for at least an hour)
-1 head of iceberg lettuce
-1 package of rice noodles (optional- but I like to add them)
-1 red pepper, diced
-1 can of diced water chestnuts
-1 can of bamboo shoots, cut into small pieces
-soy sauce

Sauce:
-1 1/2 T. Aminos (a healthy version of soy sauce- if you don’t have this, you can substitute the same amount of soy sauce)
-1 t sesame oil
-1/2 t yellow mustard
-1 T hoisin sauce
-1 t siracha (more or less depending on your taste- we like it spicy so I added more. You could also substitute red pepper flakes if you don’t have siracha)
-1 t freshly grated ginger
-1 T water

1. Preheat a large saucepan over medium heat. While the pan is heating up, dice the tofu into small cubes about 1cm in size. When the pan is heated, spray with cooking spray or olive oil and place the tofu...
