Sara’s Summer Rolls
“My daughter, Sara, saw Elmo make summer rolls on a Sesame Street DVD and wanted to try them. I tweaked this recipe a bit to suit her tastes. She assembled them—and loved them.” —Beth McGee, Pinckney, Michigan

Very pretty and super tasty! I used the ingredients listed and my guests loved them!!
I first tried spring rolls at a restaurant recently, and when I saw this recipe, I had to try it. Finding the ingredients was a challenge, but worth it! Flavor was terrific! I will have to perfect my wrapping technique, though. Made some substitutions. Used snap pea sprouts instead of bean sprouts (since store was out), and I used broccoli slaw (that had some carrot and red cabbage) instead of the sugar snap peas. Didn't want to buy a whole head of red cabbage, so I used more uncooked broccoli slaw instead of the red cabbage.
