When I was younger, I love the PF Chang's tofu lettuce wraps. These Sticky Sesame Gochujang Tofu Carrot Lettuce Wraps are a copycat version of the PF Chang's tofu lettuce wraps.

These wraps are easy to make and so flavorful. The sauce is sweet and spicy with just the right amount of acid. The lettuce perfectly counteracts the saucy tofu and adds just the right amount of crunch. I added in carrots for some extra veggies and texture as well.
I love tofu! For more yummy tofu recipes try my sweet and sour tofu or my buffalo tofu.

Tofu is made from soy beans, this makes it high in protein.
To me gochujang tastes like a combination of sriracha and miso. It is spicy with umami flavors.
