These Asian beef lettuce wraps, or lettuce tacos as we sometimes call them, are the perfect blend of flavors and the perfect ratio of meat, rice, and lettuce. Just try to imagine the deliciousness of a spicy lime meat and rice mixture nestled on a bed of crisp lettuce leaves. I’m telling you, we almost can’t get enough of these. Try these for dinner some night soon, and if you happen to have leftovers, you’ll have lunch to look forward to the next day.
