Ingredients

• 12 pieces Rice paper wrappers (gluten-free)
• 1 large (julienned) Carrot
• 1 small (julienned) Cucumber
• 1 medium (julienned) Red bell pepper
• 1 cup (shredded) Purple cabbage
• 1 large (sliced) Avocado
• 12 whole leaves Fresh mint leaves
• 1 cup (loosely packed) Fresh cilantro
• 1 cup Cooked rice vermicelli noodles (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 3 tablespoons Peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all the vegetables by washing, peeling if necessary, and julienning the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Shred the purple cabbage and slice the avocado.

Step 2

Optional: Cook the rice vermicelli noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

Step 3

Prepare the peanut dipping sauce by combining the peanut butter, tamari, rice vinegar, sesame oil, maple syrup, and water in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. Adjust consistency by adding more water if necessary.

Step 4

Fill a large shallow dish or bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for 10-15 seconds, or until it softens and becomes pliable. Be careful not to over-soak as it may tear.

Step 5

Lay the softened rice paper wrapper on a clean cutting board or damp kitchen towel. Place a small handful of purple cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, red bell pepper, avocado slices, mint leaves, cilantro, and optional rice vermicelli noodles near the bottom third of the wrapper.

Step 6

Fold the bottom of the rice paper over the filling, fold in the sides, and then roll tightly to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining rice paper wrappers and fillings.

Step 7

Serve the gluten-free veggie spring rolls immediately with the prepared peanut dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy!
