Spring Rolls for Spring

We made spring rolls for spring!

Here is what we did:

We first a took a circle of rice paper. It looked like a flying saucer. So we made our rice paper circle flying saucer fly! We flew it into a bowl of water, then we swished it around until it got soft.

After that, we put the soft rice paper on a plate and put on all the stuff we wanted to put on it.

You can put anything in a spring roll that you like. And nothing that you don’t like.

There was a bunch of food in bowls: carrots, cucumbers, shrimp, noodles, lettuce and some fresh herbs. Plus a bunch of sauces and some other things.

Here is what we put in our spring roll:

Stretchy noodles, crunchy carrots, crispy cucumbers and some soft green lettuce. Then we folded the edges over and rolled it all up.

And then we ate it. It was really fun!
