Tofu Lettuce Wraps with Peanut Sauce

Submitted by:Rachel Gargano

Who says lettuce wraps have to contain chicken?  Wait, maybe the better thing to say here is:  Who says tofu can't taste as great as chicken in these lettuce wraps?  Especially doused with a creamy, thick spiced peanut sauce?

This is a fun hands-on meal that everyone will love, even if they don't think they like tofu!
