  • 10-12 spring roll wraps
  • 5-6 lettuce leaves
  • ¾ cup shredded carrots
  • ¾ cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
For the Creamy Sweet and Spicy Sauce:
  • 1 – 5.3oz container of plain Greek yogurt
  • 4 tablespoons Asian sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (optional)
Directions:
For the spring rolls:
  1. Boil water in a small pot over medium to high heat. Add the shrimp and cook them until they’ve turned a reddish orange color. Drain the shrimp and allow them to cook for several minutes until they are comfortable to touch. Slice the shrimp in half lengthwise.
  2. Dip the spring roll wrap in warm water until all the surfaces are wet. Set the spring roll wrap onto a flat surface. On one end, place the lettuce, cucumber, carrots, basil leaves, and shrimp. Fold the right and left side of the spring roll toward the center, and then roll the spring roll. The wrap will seal itself at the end.
  3. Continue wrapping until all the ingredients are used.
For the Creamy Sweet and Spicy Sauce:
  1. Combine plain Greek yogurt, Asian sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha in a small bowl.
  2. Serve the spring rolls with the creamy sweet and spicy sauce.
