Notes
The lettuce: I like to use the living lettuce Because it makes the perfect cups for these shrimp lettuce wraps. You could also use romaine lettuce boats.
The cauliflower rice: I use frozen cauliflower rice because it is so easy. You could also make your own using a small head of cauliflower and a food processor.
Spice it up: These keto shrimp lettuce wraps do not include any spice because I am not a fan, but you could definitely add a sliced Thai chili to the mix for a little heat.
