Ingredients
  

8 large rice paper wrappers

1 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)

1 cup thinly sliced cucumber

1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh herbs (e.g., cilantro, mint, basil) for garnish

Sesame seeds for garnish

Peanut Sauce:

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 clove garlic, minced

1-2 tablespoons hot water (to thin out the sauce)

Optional: red pepper flakes for extra heat

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all the vegetables and slice them thinly. Cook quinoa according to package instructions and allow it to cool completely.

    Make the Peanut Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, minced garlic, and hot water until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if necessary and spice it up with red pepper flakes if desired.

      Soften the Rice Paper Wrappers: Fill a shallow bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until it becomes pliable. Make sure not to soak it too long, or it will become too soft to handle.

        Assemble the Rolls: Lay the softened rice paper on a clean surface. In the center, layer a small amount of cooked quinoa, shredded carrots, sliced bell peppers, cucumber, a handful of spinach, and a few slices of avocado. Add a few fresh herb leaves for added flavor.

          Roll It Up: Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll from the bottom up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling mixture.

            Serve: Cut the veggie rolls in half, if desired, and serve with a generous drizzle of the peanut sauce. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and garnish with additional herbs.
