Author Notes

Here is a quick, simple & healthy lunch. You can even make these spring rolls ahead of time to pack for the go. At the beginning of the week I like to poach an entire organic chicken. I can used the meat throughout the week & use the broth for soups or for cooking rice. Just double the recipe if you want to do appetizers...& get people involved too.

The flavors here are nice and clean, I didn't feel like I needed a dipping sauce, although Jediah used plain tamari on the side. —we eat. happy.

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • For the Spring Rolls
  • 6 rice paper wrappers
  • water
  • 2 cups cooked organic chicken, shredded
  • a mix of greens & herbs (I buy an organic mix from the grocery store)
  • 4 scallions, cut in half & sliced lengthwise
  • Creamy Ginger Avocado Spread
  • 1 avocado, pitted & scooped into a small bowl
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • a squeeze of lemon juice
  • a pinch of dried chili flakes
Directions
  1. For the Spring Rolls
  2. Soak each wrapper one at a time in some cold water. About 15 seconds each. On a clean surface, lay flat & then fold in half.
  3. Spread about 1 TBL of avocado, then add a bit of greens, a few shreds of chicken & a few scallions. Tightly roll by bringing one side over the filling & making sure you bring the bottom in too.
  1. Creamy Ginger Avocado Spread
  2. Mash together in a bowl until smooth or achieved desired texture.
