Raw Vegan-Viet Rice Paper Rolls

Recipe Author: Beautiful on Raw

The rolls can be served as an appetizer or as a main course. You can also use a veggie roll as a sandwich replacement. Veggie rolls are also extremely versatile and can be made in endless variations.

I chose the veggies for this recipe. But you can try your own variations. Whatever fruit and veg you have in the fridge will likely yield something great. You’ll find rice wafers in many supermarkets and oriental products stores.

These Vietnamese-style rolls are great for taking to parties. Everyone will be impressed.

Mangoes contain lots of fructose and are naturally sweet enough. Fruits…color…flavor. Ideal for a hot summer day.

But chia seeds do bring some good news. Like Omega-3 fatty acids. And this underappreciated attribute…Chia seeds let you feel full faster, thanks to the amino acid tryptophan, which regulates appetite and improves mood.
