Quick Tip
To make a quick sub for the hoisin sauce, in a small bowl combine ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar, 2 teaspoons toasted (dark) sesame oil, 2 teaspoons peeled and minced fresh ginger, ¼ teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder, ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, and ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper.
What Kids Can Do
Kids can separate and wash the lettuce leaves.
Make Ahead
To save time, chop the zucchini and bell pepper 1 day ahead and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
