Ingredients

Spring Rolls

1 package rice paper
2-3 carrots
2-3 cucumbers
½ head cabbage
1 bunch greens of choice, such as kale, chard, or green leaf lettuce
1 bunch root vegetabes, such as beets or radishes
seasonal fruit, optional
sprouts, optional

Orange Cucumber Sauce

1 cucumber
1 orange
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup cashews, raw
1 Tbsp ginger, grated
1 clove garlic
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp salt

Instructions

For the Spring Rolls

Grate or thinly slice all of the vegetables for the spring rolls
Fill a shallow container with warm water. One at a time, place a sheet of rice paper in the warm water until it softens (about 30 seconds).
Remove rice paper in water and place desired fillings in the center of the rice paper in a line. Be sure not to overfill the rice paper. (This will take some practice.)
Fold the ends of the rice paper and roll. Eat immediately or allow to sit for 5-10 minutes so the rice paper is less sticky

For the Orange Cucumber Sauce

Peel and dice a cucumber and orange and place in a jar with a lid. Add ¼ cup olive oil, ¼ cup raw cashews, 1 Tbsp grated ginger, 1 grated clove of garlic, the juice of 1 lemon, about 2 Tbsp, and 1 tsp salt.
Shake to form a sauce and serve with the spring rolls.
