Savory and Sweet Spring Rolls Recipe Video
These healthy spring rolls can be served as a snack or lunch for the kids heading back to school. I picked up my rice paper and noodles at Saigon Market off Kerr Avenue. You can make the spring rolls with nearly any type of local seafood, so be sure to give it a try.
Ingredients
Rice noodles
Strawberries
Macadamia nuts
Round rice paper
Bean sprouts
Feta cheese
Spinach
Dried cranberries

Directions
Add the rice noodles to a pot of boiling water and cook until soft. Drain and set aside to cool. In the meantime, thinly slice strawberries into 4 pieces each, and crush the macadamia nuts by chopping with a knife or running through a food processor. Dip half of the rice paper in a bowl of warm water and rotate through the water until it becomes soft. Place the softened rice paper on a flat surface and work quickly, as it will stick. Place cooked rice noodles on the bottom third of the rice paper. Top the noodles with bean sprouts and feta cheese. Above the noodles, near the center of the rice paper, place 4 strawberry slices. Top with a few pieces of spinach, dried cranberries and crushed macadamia nuts. Begin making the roll: Slowly peel the rice paper up roll away from you. Fold in the sides as you go. Cover with a wet cloth to keep the spring rolls moist before serving.
