Fresh, exotic, delicious AND healthy! Who could ask for more....oh yea, easy would have been nice. These were a bit fussy to make, and it took me several attempts at getting the right amount of filling so that the rolls stayed together and were manageable. I had medium sized rice paper, and wished I had the larger ones. I think the best amount of filling isn't much more than 3 tablespoons full. We thoroughly enjoyed this recipe Kimke and are so glad you posted this for us to make.

I live in Omaha NE and am an audiologist at Boys Town National Research Hospital. I love to cook, as does my husband Michael. In the summer, we have a large garden and try to use alot of fresh fruits/veggies in our cooking. We have a 5 year old daughter, Kate and almost 2 year old son Sam and enjoy introducing them to new foods. One of their favorites is fresh pesto smeared on crackers!
