With my garden flourishing so well this summer and guests coming over for a game night in the evening, I decided to whip up some fresh veggie spring rolls with a peanut dipping sauce.

Using my harvest of mixed greens, green onions, and basil, these fresh spring rolls had a satisfying crunch when we bit into them. Paired with the spicy, nutty peanut dipping sauce, they quickly disappeared from the table. What a quick and healthy party appetizer!

To begin, I collected all the necessary ingredients: carrots and tofu from the fridge, rice wrappers from the pantry, and mixed greens, green onions, and basil from the garden.

After rinsing the vegetables, I chopped them up into thin, roughly 4-inch strips. I did the same with the tofu as well.

For the wrappers, I laid out a thin layer of warm water on a plate. Then, one at a time, I dipped each wrapper into the plate of water for a quick soak of 15 to 30 seconds.

On another plate, I spread the now semi translucent and flexible wrapper and placed some carrot, greens, basil, green onions, and tofu in the center. After wrapping each spring roll up like a burrito, with three sides first then rolling to the final end, I had a full tray of fresh veggie spring rolls!

For the dipping sauce, I mixed the peanut butter, tamari sauce, chili sauce, and agave syrup in a saucepan over low to medium heat. Once completely combined, the peanut dipping sauce was ready to serve.

And that’s all it took to create a fresh and delicious platter of veggie spring rolls and peanut dipping sauce! These veggie spring rolls with peanut dipping sauce are perfect for party snacks, dinner party appetizers, grab-and-go lunches, and easy dinners.
