Inspired by Veggie Summer Rolls with Spicy Peanut Lime Sauce Recipe on Oh She Glows website: http://ohsheglows.com/2012/07/20/veggie-summer-rolls-with-spicy-peanut-lime-sauce-two-ways.
Their post says "two ways" and I essentially created a third format by turning it into a salad, adding quinoa and omitting the tofu. The dressing I make varies slightly because I omit the lime juice and the sugar. I have posted my version of the recipe on my website http://www.whatvegetarianseat.com —Taylor Loftin
