Love These Lettuce Wraps
I love these lettuce wraps with the Bayou Bourbon Glaze but I went to make them this week but didn't have any of the sauce left. I substituted the Tangy Thai Sauce from the Spring Summer catalog and it was absolutely delicious. My whole family loved them!

Really Fast and Flavorful Dish!
This meal was super easy to prepare. My kids "think" they don't like mushrooms so I chopped them up teeny-tiny so they looked like the ground chicken (they don't know what they like!!). They inhaled the wraps and my husband and I loved them as well!
We drizzled a little extra Bayou Bourbon on our wraps because it is one of our favorite sauce!
