Chopped frozen vegetables make these wraps a snap. Add some Asian chili sauce if you want to spice it up a bit. -Susan Riley of Allen, Texas

Have made this for my family several times..very easy and delicious. We like spicy, so I added some red pepper flakes.

Use a crisp lettuce like Romaine...

Yummy! Tastes like something out of a restaurant! It's kind of hard to fold them into the lettuce wrap, but they still tste great! Next time I might add a little more peanut butter, just because I love it. But this is a wonderful recipe!

This has a great blend of flavors and colors! Terrific leftovers, too! I use the frozen veg but also add whatever fresh vegetables I have, usually onions and peppers, add more hoisin and more ginger, and chopped water chestnuts for crunch. I also like to add pepper flakes or chili oil for a spicier sauce.

Really good base recipe - made several changes to suit my family: I used fresh veggies instead of frozen, probably close to three times the amount the recipe calls for, doubled the sauce, cut the ginger in half, and added about 2-3 cups freshly cooked brown rice to stretch it and soak up the sauce. I'll be adding red pepper flakes to mine before I eat it to kick it up a notch. The flavor of the sauce is excellent!

Very good recipe. Had to buy some different ingreients but I have made the recipe a few times. I thought the fresh ginger had a very strong flavor and may omit that next time.
