Fresh Spring Rolls comes in a large variety of filling, typically in assorted veggies cut into thin strips and also meat. One of my favorites is with ground chicken. Yum!
What is great about spring rolls are, they make a wonderful light dinner, appetizers or even as a main dish at any season.
They are healthy, delicious and great alternative to fried spring rolls. Best of all, they are so easy and fun to make.
Add all these tasty ingredients: lettuce, ground chicken, blanched grated carrots, fresh mint and cilantro as shown in the picture.
The ingredients can be prepared in advance and reserved so they are ready to be placed in a rice paper wrapper. Make sure to cover the dish with a cling plastic wrap after the fresh rolls are wrapped. Don’t refrigerate otherwise the wrappers become difficult to chew. The unrefrigerated fresh rolls can wait for an hour before cutting and serving them.
