These Tasty Lettuce Wraps are to die for! Ok maybe not to literally die for but dang they are amazing! With my husband being Korean, we obviously love our Asian cuisine. These easy to make lettuce wraps have always been a family (and friends) favorite.

I know – the pictures make you want to eat them right off the screen, but honestly the pictures do not do them justice. These Asian Lettuce Wraps are better than anything you will ever find at any restaurant – I promise.
