Spring Roll’s are always a good idea. They are fresh and surprisingly filling, not to mention extremely delicious.
These Chicken and Kale Spring rolls are loaded with fresh, basic ingredients and served with a creamy peanut butter sauce on the side for dipping. These small wooden bowls are great for dips like this! I like to throw in some mint leaves and chopped peanuts before rolling them up– this just adds a bit of crunch and quick burst of flavor.
You can prep everything ahead of time so that all of the fillings are ready to go, and all you’ll need to do is roll em up! I also used a rotisserie chicken and stored the shredded chicken in the fridge until I was ready to use it. This makes your lunch or dinner prep extra quick & easy. These would also be a fun appetizer to bring to any party or get together. Just wanted to throw that tid bit out there!
If you aren’t familiar, you can find Spring Roll Wrappers at most grocery stores in the Asian Aisle or you can always order them online, of course. When you are ready to rock N’ ROLL, dunk each wrapper individually into a bowl of warm water for about 15 seconds just to soften them up a bit. Then you’re ready to add your fillings and roll. Never knew it was that simple, huh?
TIPP: Wrap the prepared rolls in saran wrap and store in an airtight container until you’re ready to indulge. They will keep for a few days in the fridge, however, don’t add the avocado if you’re not eating them right away because they will get a soggy. We definitely don’t need soggy spring rolls on our hands.
Enjoy!!
