VEGETABLE ROLLS
- ▢ 4 rice paper wrappers
- ▢ 1 cup romaine lettuce leaves
- ▢ ½ cup cucumber, cut into strips
- ▢ ½ cup carrots, shredded
- ▢ 1-2 avocados, sliced
- ▢ fresh basil and mint
PEANUT SAUCE
- ▢ ¼ cup peanut butter
- ▢ 1 clove garlic, chopped
- ▢ 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, chopped
- ▢ 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
- ▢ 2 Tablespoons low sodium tamari, soy sauce or coconut aminos
- ▢ 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- ▢ a pinch of cayenne pepper, optional
- ▢ water, to thin
Instructions
- Wet spring roll wrapper with warm water. I usually heat a pot of water on the stove top (not letting it get to a boil) and once it’s warm I put it in a bowl or plate that is large enough to fit the rice paper wrapper in.
- Place wrapper on a hard surface. Place lettuce leaf on far left edge of wrapper
- Place a little of each ingredient into the wrap. Top with avocado and one or two leaves of the fresh herbs.
- Roll wrapper from left to right, folding in the top and the bottom sides of wrapper toward the middle, just before the wrapper is completely wrapped.
- Complete steps 1 to 4 for each wrapper.
- Whisk all ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl. Add water to thin if needed. Serve as a dipping sauce for the rolls.
