Fresh rice paper rolls with satay dipping sauce
Here’s a great lunch idea for when you need a change from sandwiches, salads and wraps. These Rice Paper Rolls With Satay Dipping Sauce are absolutely delicious and surprisingly easy to make.
Making your own rice paper rolls might sound difficult, but it’s actually lots of fun and pretty easy once you get going. We love using rice paper rolls in our meal plans for the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge. The papers themselves are available in the Asian section at most supermarkets, or from Asian delis or supermarkets, often near the noodles.
Stuff your rolls with whatever healthy salads, meats, herbs and spices that you have on hand. You could also add things like coriander, grilled haloumi, cooked prawns, mint leaves, bean sprouts – anything goes!
Today we have gone with a classic chicken, avocado and salad combo, which we topped off with a spicy satay dipping sauce.
