Spring Rolls:

Rice paper (soaked briefly in warm water before each roll)
Slice em' thinner than thin:

Carrots
Red, yellow onions
Green and red peppers
Green onions
Leeks

Cilantro sprigs
Avocado strips
Soba noodles, rice or quinoa (if desired)

Ginger
Garlic

Cut and mix in bowl.

Roll these babies. Use wood cutting board or ceramic plate to roll them onto. Soak rice paper in warm water for roughly 15 seconds (until it does, like I said, turn eerily similar to the texture of skin). Place roughly 1/4 cup contents towards the lower edge (where the mouth would be on a face) of the soaked rice paper (i.e. your grandmother's skin).

Roll, fold sides and continue to roll. Cut in half.

  1. Hi Lissa,
    Thank you so much for your comment on my blog, and for reading! I've been on the anti-candida diet for just over a year, so I know how you feel. Hope you like the brownies (and other dessert goodies on the blog). :)

    Couldn't help seeing that your recipe is from Ellen's chef. I've been on a campaign to bake up healthy desserts (wheat, egg, dairy and refined sugar-free) on the Ellen show--and as of last week, my cookbook is listed on her "Books Ellen Reads" page! (whoo hoo!). I've posted a YouTube video here if you're interested--and feel free to spread the word! ;)
