PF Chang’s is a restaurant 18 year-old me considered fancy. I loved going! I would order the lettuce wraps for an appetizer and the Singapore Street Noodles (they have since changed the name) for my entree. One serving of lettuce wraps has 67 grams of carbs! Those wraps are loaded with sugar.

I had to come up with an alternative that is still tasty.

Why Are PF Changs Lettuce Wraps So High in Carbs?

Sugar. Many of the ingredients are loaded in sugar. The main culprit is hoisin sauce. Most recipes use about 1/4 cup of hoisin sauce. This equates to 36 grams of net carbs. If the wraps from PF Changs have 67 grams of carbs, then you can bet they are loading their sauce with a LOT more sugar.

For this recipe, I ditched the store-bought hoisin and chose to make my own. That way I can use a zero calorie sweetener in the sauce. Swerve is my favorite. You can grab it here on Amazon.

What can I substitute for hoisin sauce?

You can make your own hoisin using natural peanut butter, zero-calorie Swerve sweetener, soy sauce, Sriracha, sesame seed oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

How Many Calories Do PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps Have?

The PF Chang’s lettuce wraps have 660 calories, per their website. The site doesn’t specify how many servings this denotes.

What Can I Put In Lettuce Wraps?

Chicken and steak lettuce wraps are usually my go-to’s. Be sure to check out my Keto and Low-Carb Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps and Steak Lettuce Wraps.

How Do You Make PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps?

You will need lettuce wraps (see note below), the ingredients for homemade hoisin (see above), rice wine vinegar, water chestnuts, green onions, and soy sauce. Combine the ingredients in a skillet. Serve over lettuce wraps.

What sauce is in PF Chang’s Lettuce Wraps?

The base of the sauce is hoisin sauce and rice wine vinegar.

What Lettuce is Best For Wraps?

If you would like the wraps to look like they do in the restaurant, you will need to use bibb or butter lettuce. Butter lettuce is really small and perfect if you are going to use the wraps as an appetizer. Whole Foods is the only store I consistently see butter lettuce. With other supermarkets it is very hit or miss for me.

I often turn my lettuce wraps into a main dish. I love to use romaine lettuce for main dish wraps. Romaine is larger and longer than bibb/butter lettuce. It can also withstand more filling. Because this recipe has sauce, you will need to be careful with overfilling the lettuce. Romaine makes it much easier to work with.

If you are looking for a zero-cal, no carb sweetener with no aftertaste, Swerve will be your new best friend! I’m head over heels for this stuff!

These lettuce wraps can be great for meal prep. Pack your lettuce in Ziploc bags (air-tight) and place your chicken filling in this Freezer-Friendly Tupperware from Amazon. You can even freeze this dish for future use!

The Cure For the Keto Flu is Bone Broth and MCT Oil

The keto lifestyle can sometimes cause me to get dizzy and have brain fog. It can be really hard to focus. Each night before bed I like to drink bone broth. Kettle and Fire is my favorite brand. They have beef and chicken flavors. I add a little liquid aminos and hot sauce for flavor. You can sip it from a mug or eat it like a miso soup in a bowl. 

I add 1 tablespoon of MCT oil to my coffee in the morning. This helps add additional fat to support keto macros and also helps with keto flu.Get 8+ new keto-friendly snacks delivered to your door each month with KetoKrate.
