Easy Salmon Spring Rolls

Fresh Spring Rolls with Salmon
Makes 6 rolls

When it’s too hot to cook (or you’re just not in the mood), these fresh spring rolls are a total win. Light, colorful, and endlessly customizable, they’re a fun way to pack in veggies and protein without much effort. You’ll boil some noodles, but everything else is fresh, fast, and fridge-friendly. Bonus: they hold up great in lunch boxes and double as a hands-on dinner your kids can help roll.


Ingredients:

  • 6 spring roll wrappers
  • 6 butter lettuce leaves
  • 1 small carrot, peeled into ribbons
  • 1/2 small cucumber, peeled into ribbons
  • 1/3 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 serving (about 1.5–2 oz dry) rice vermicelli noodles
  • 1 can Wild Planet Wild Pink Salmon, drained
  • 1–2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1–2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1/3 cup marinated tofu slices (optional or in replacement of salmon)
  • Optional: Peanut sauce or allergy-friendly dipping sauce

Instructions:

Prep the veggies:
Rinse and dry all produce. Peel the carrot and cucumber into ribbons using a veggie peeler. Thinly slice the red cabbage and green onions. Set aside with the cilantro leaves.

Cook the noodles:
Prepare the rice vermicelli according to package directions. Rinse with cold water and drain well.

Make the salmon filling:
In a small bowl, gently mix the drained salmon with mayo and sweet chili sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Soften the wrappers:
Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one spring roll wrapper into the water for 10–15 seconds, just until pliable. Lay it flat on a clean, lightly oiled surface.

Assemble the rolls:
In the center of each wrapper, layer 1 lettuce leaf, a small handful of noodles, a few veggie ribbons, a pinch of cabbage, some green onion and cilantro, and a spoonful of the salmon mixture. Add tofu slices if using.

Roll it up:
Fold in the sides, then roll from the bottom up into a tight spring roll. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Serve:
Enjoy fresh with your favorite dipping sauce.
