    Shrimp Spring Rolls

    I am a huge snacker and being quarantined at home for the last 12 weeks has not helped my habit. I try my best to stay ahead of grabbing the wrong snack in between meals and I've learned, planning ahead really helps with staying on a healthy track!

    I teamed up with my friend Hyacinth from Hyacinths Holistic Health and we hosted a live talk on Instagram discussing emotional eating, our own stories related the topic and ways to benefit going down a destructive path especially during this pandemic season!

    These fresh Vietnamese style spring rolls are the perfect snack (or meal) and packed with tons of healthy veggies rolled into soft, chewy rice paper. You know I'm a sauce girl so of course, I've paired this with a tasty peanut dipping sauce and sweet chili sauce. I'm telling you, this could turn into a snack party if you aren't careful. I love preparing and eating festive foods!

    I can't believe I waited as long as I did to create these at home! Being housed in during this pandemic has a lot of us taking our cooking skills to the next level and you should know majority of my time is spent hanging out in the kitchen!

    Shrimp Spring Rolls

    Working with rice paper to make the spring rolls are not as daunting as it seems! The hardest part is choosing all of your favorite veggies to pack in. It becomes very pliable after you submerge it in water. You lay it on a flat surface, fill with your favorite veggies and in no time, you have a tasty, healthy snack!

      My mom and I made these recently, and they were good. The instructions were easy to follow. Once we got the hang of the wrapping and our rice paper not sticking together, we were on a roll. The best part was the reward-eating them ALL with the peanut sauce.
