Sriracha Tofu Cashew Lettuce Wraps

We're always looking for new ways to use tofu around here, and we think that tossing it together with some crunchy Karma Nuts Raw Cashews, garlic, onions and a bunch of pantry staples is the way to go! We love the kick that the Sriracha gives these delicious lettuce cups, and the crunch of cashews and water chestnut gives these a texture we're drooling over. Plus if you leave the Worcestershire out they're perfect for your vegan friends!

  7. Add in the tofu and mix well.
  8. Scoop a few heaping tablespoons into each lettuce leaf and top with green onions and a sprinkle of lime juice.
