We know you love the sweet flavor of orange sauce from Americanized Chinese take-out places, like ones named after fast bears. But you also love lettuce wraps; yes for the health, but mostly for the satisfying crunch of biting into one. What's the best thing you can do with these two loves? Combine them! Enjoy these tasty wraps filled with spicy and tender cauliflower and crisp slaw.

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Separate leaves of lettuce for wraps. To re-crisp lettuce wraps, soak in icy, cold water, 5 minutes. Thoroughly dry. Lettuce wraps are a delicious, but messy meal. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to a salad. Simply chop romaine and top with filling after completing steps.
Coarsely chop peanuts.Break cauliflower into 1" pieces using hands.In a mixing bowl, combine cauliflower, cornstarch, Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse), and a pinch of salt and pepper until coated. -
2 Cook the Cauliflower
Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 3 Tbsp. olive oil.
Add cauliflower to hot pan, shaking off excess cornstarch mixture. Cook undisturbed until golden-brown on one side, 2-4 minutes.Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir occasionally until browned all over and tender, 4-6 minutes.Add spicy orange sauce (to taste), 2 Tbsp. water, and Sriracha (to taste). Stir until coated and combined, 30-60 seconds.Remove from burner.While cauliflower cooks, continue recipe. -
3 Make the Slaw
In another mixing bowl, combine slaw mix, dressing, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
