End of summer FRESH SPRING ROLLS!

9/2/2016

0 Comments

 
I love fresh spring rolls...people say the secret is in the sauce, but I just love how you can fill them with all types of seasonal veggies, and wrap them like a salad to-go! The version I typically do is great for summer harvest because you'll have plenty of crispy cucumbers, carrots and any greens will do. A little avocado works nicely too... :)
