Description

Ingredients

• 1 pint of strawberries, sliced thin
• ¼ of a watermelon, julienne cut into matchsticks
• 1 cup of blueberries
• 1 small zucchini, spiralized
• 1 small yellow squash, spiralized
• 2 lemons, zested
• 2 limes, zested
• ¼ cup of fresh mint, chopped
• 20 rice paper rolls
• 1 can of beets (not pickled!), drained and juice reserved
• Dipping sauce of choice

Directions

• The key to successfully rolling spring rolls is to be sure everything is prepped and ready to go before attempting to start!
• Slice your fruit and spiralize your zucchini and squash!
• In a shallow bowl (a glass pie pan works great) mix equal parts of warm water and the juice from the drained can of beets.
• Using your hands, wet your work surface, like a smooth cutting board, as this will keep your rice paper from getting stuch to the surface.
• Dip the wrapper in the bowl for 10-20 seconds until it remains firm yet pliable.
• Lay your wrapper on the wet surface and work quickly to add the ingredients.
• Start by laying down the sliced strawberries, topped with watermelon sticks, blueberries, lemon and lime zest and mint. Finish by adding the zoodles.
• Be careful not to over or under fill your spring roll wrapper. It may take you a trial run or two to get it just right.
• Work quickly because you dont want your wrapper to lose moisture or become mushy.
• Start on either the left or right-hand size and stretch one side of the wrapper around the pile of ingredients, tucking and rolling the paper until the pile is neatly pulled together.
• Then pull in the top and bottom flaps.
• Tuck in any corners and continue to roll all the way, making the spring roll as tight as possible.
