*By using powdered peanut butter (@pbfit) in the peanut sauce rather than regular peanut butter, I’m using 87% less fat and about 1/3 the calories! But, regular peanut butter works just fine as well :)

Instructions

Step 1

Cook vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. While noodles cook prep your veggies.

Step 2

Assemble spring rolls: fill a bowl with hot water. Place rice paper wrap in the water then add to a damp cutting board. Arrange the tofu, bell pepper, carrot, and cucumber in the center of the wrap then top with cabbage slaw and rice noodles.

Step 3

Fold opposite ends of the softened rice paper in. Then fold the bottom into the center so that it meets the edges and seals and roll. Repeat with the remaining wraps and filling.

Step 4

Dip in peanut sauce and enjoy!
