For 9 rolls

A CookTale

I have always had a passion for Egg and Spring Rolls. This in my first attempt using Thai Rice Paper. The vegetarian filling was extremely tasty, the
Dipping Sauce added a great deal to the zip of the dish. A cool dinner on a hot August evening.

1. Toss together all of the ingredients except the wrappers in a large bowl.
2. Submerge wrappers one at a time, in a dish of warm water until pliable, about 15 seconds.
