So if you dont know this already...Im a big fan of the Lettuce Wraps at PF Changs. They are not THAT bad calorie wise if you choose to go out and eat them there. I think you can have the whole serving for 10 pts. Not too bad right?
Well....I just found a rockin recipe online and I must say they are pretty good. Not exactly the same.... but I DEVOURED them Friday night after Loren and I made them. Im not sure of the point value. It wouldnt be too hard to figure that out. I didnt make the Special dipping sauce....I read it was dang good.... but to me...thats alot of unneccisary calories. I didnt feel the need to dip these wraps, because they were tasty alone. I also made some LING LING Pot stickers that can be found in the freezer section of the grocery store that are low in fat and tasty and went very well together.
I must add that I used Low Sodium Soy Sauce in the stir fry sauce. I would recommend that....all that sodium cant be good. I prefer to drink it in my diet cokes:)
I also used Olive Oil

5Eventually add your desired measurement of mustard and garlic chili sauce to the special sauce mixture to pour over the wraps.
