You're going to love these vegan lettuce wraps served with a tasty dipping sauce. This 30-minute dish is made with lots of healthy and flavorful ingredients too.
Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Break the tofu into chunks and add to the skillet. Use a spatula to continue breaking the tofu down into a crumbly mixture. Cook tofu until browned, about 10 minutes.
Stir in onion, tamari, and rice wine vinegar. Cook until onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped garlic, water chestnuts, red pepper, cabbage, and almonds. Cook a few more minutes, until the peppers are slightly tender.
Prepare the almond butter sauce by combing the ingredients and stirring. Add half of the sauce to the skillet with the tofu mixture, stirring it to ensure all the pieces are coated.
To serve, scoop a spoonful or two of the veggie tofu mixture into the center of each butter lettuce leaf. Serve with reserved almond butter sauce or sauce of your choice.
Notes
Oil — substitute olive oil for sesame oil.Carbs — If you're not worried about carbs, adding something sweet (like maple syrup or blackberry jam) to the almond sauce adds extra flavor.
