Summer Rolls

Summer rolls are delicious and so good for you! They include lots of fresh veggies and very little fat. Most of the calories comes from the dipping sauce while most of the nutrients from the summer rolls. You can mix and match different veggies to your liking or whatever you happen to have in the fridge at the moment. These are great with a soy/rice vinegar/sesame mixture or a peanut sauce.

Ingredients:
  • rice paper
  • rice noodles
  • julienned carrots, zucchini, red peppers, yellow peppers, avocado
  • Bean sprouts
  • tofu, chicken or shrimp
  • soy sauce
  • hot sauce
  • sesame seeds
  • rice vinegar
  • peanut sauce
Directions:
  • soak rice paper until soft
  • center veggies sticks, bean sprouts, noodles and meat

  • roll into summer roll (like a burrito)
