Crispy Vegetable Spring Rolls

the flavors are perfect, the little bit of crisping afterwards with the aid of a low calorie cooking spray takes it to the next level… really tastes like you’ve gone out and bought some Spring Rolls from a restaurant!

The filling for these spring rolls is extremely versatile: Use whichever thinly sliced veggies you have on hand or shortcut with packaged broccoli slaw. Serve with your favorite brand of Asian dumpling sauce.
