Chipotle Pork Lettuce WrapsTell me these aren’t these prettiest looking lettuce wraps you’ve ever seen?! ? 

They taste just as good as they look! I mean, how could they not be amazing when they are chock full of chipotle pulled pork? You won’t even believe that these are Whole30 compliant. And don’t worry if you aren’t doing a round of Whole30, you can totally still eat these. They are so full of flavor and just plain fun to eat!

Pulled Pork Lettuce WrapsWhenever I think of lettuce wraps, I think of P.F. Chang’s. If you’ve ever eaten there then you know about the lettuce wraps. If you don’t, do yourself a favor and order them next your there. They have gluten-free available! ?

The first time I ate at P.F. Chang’s was on trip to Atlantic City. I remember seeing everyone with the lettuce wraps, but didn’t order them. The next time I went, I was with my aunt and uncle, who before we even got there talked about the lettuce wraps. My uncle loves them so much that he made my aunt order her own because he wanted them all to himself! Kyle and I shared one and to this day we always order them when we go.

Pork Lettuce WrapsNeedless to say, we are lettuce wrap fans. This chipotle pulled pork version is certainly no exception. Not only are they super delicious, but they are really simple. All you need is some of my slow cooker chipotle pulled pork, lettuce, sliced avocado, and the most amazing avocado aioli! 

The avocado aioli tastes just like guacamole. Seriously, if liquid guacamole were a thing, this would be it. It adds even more flavor to the pork and cools things down a little – such a perfect combination! I’ve been putting the aioli on just about everything I can think of. Scrambled eggs, a burrito bowl that I made with cauliflower rice, and it makes a great dip for veggies!

I can’t wait to make these again – they make a great lunch, snack, and dinner. Heck, I’ll even eat these for breakfast! ?

    • Hi Megan! I’m sorry, but I don’t have that info as I don’t count calories. You can easily plug the ingredients into any online calorie calculator to get the nutritional info! Enjoy 🙂
