Spring Rolls a la Rona

This is what went down for dinner last night. And ok, these are the worst photos ever, but I was too lazy to reach for my rebel and my little elph is on its deathbed, plus the lighting isn't so hot in the dining room.

The Components:
1. shredded english hothouse cucumber, shredded carrots, and chopped cilantro on the big plate.
2. lime juice with a big scoop of vietnamese vegetarian hot sauce in the center.
3. baby shrimp stir-fried with Trader Joe's Thai chili and lime leaf peanuts, top right.
4. sliced mango, bottom right.
5. mini vietnamese rice wrappers (not shown.)

Mini Spring Roll (I had six! So yum.)


Once the weather gets hot, I'm going to make different variations of these rolls so that I won't have to slave over a hot stove.
