Vegetarian Summer Rolls

  4.0 – 1 reviews  

We made our own version of summer rolls after years of enjoying them at our favorite Thai restaurant. These are tasty and highly healthy, so my 11-year-old enjoys making them and we all enjoy eating them! These are fantastic as an appetizer or as a main entrée!

I thought these were pretty good, and a refreshing meal for this hot, humid day. I do prefer them with shrimp though, and the only real thing bringing flavor to these was the peanut sauce and cucumber. They would have benefited from basil leaves, mint and cilantro for a more traditional taste. Next time I would also saute the tofu in sesame oil for added flavor. A little difficult to eat because of the dry broccoli slaw, but very healthy.
