As it is now officially spring, I have been really craving my beloved thai spring rolls. It is my favorite appetizer at Thai restaurants, but I actually prefer to make them myself. As it is getting warmer and sunnier outside, these spring rolls are such a great light lunch idea. They are so quickly prepared, and you need no fancy equipment or ingredients to make them. I know that many of the recipes on my blog can be quite pricy, but this one definitely falls under the „eating on a budget“ category.

All you need are some raw veggies of your choice, rice paper and rice noodles which you can already get for one or two Euros at Asian supermarkets, peanut or any kind of nut butter and some condiments that you probably already have in stock. Summer rolls are also a great work lunch, because you eat them cold, and you can prepare them the night before.

  
The peanut dipping sauce is also divine. Even though I have switched from peanut butter to almond butter a long time ago, this peanut sauce will really blow your mind. It is so creamy and delicious, packed with healthy protein and fats, and really gives this recipe a special touch. I know that many of you are allergic to peanuts, which is why I am working on a second dipping sauce without any kind of nuts in it. I will share the recipe with you as soon as I declare it approved.
