Veggie Lettuce Wraps with Creamy Cashew Sauce

July 1, 2018 by Helena Leave a Comment

Fresh and easy Veggie Lettuce Wraps with Creamy Cashew Sauce that make a healthy, light lunch or crowd-pleasing appetizer.
I just love lettuce wraps, since the first time I tried them while living in the US. What is not to love?!
The fresh crunch of the lettuce, the delicious filling and yummy sauce and eating with your hands and getting a little messy. It is kind of a requirement when you eat lettuce wraps!
These lettuce wraps are filled with lots of veggies, halloumi cheese and  topped off with a creamy cashew sauce.
You will love these!
