Spring Rolls
Spring rolls are a large variety of filled, rolled appetizers or dim sum found in East Asian, and Southeast Asian cuisine. The kind of wrapper, fillings, and cooking technique used, as well as the name, vary considerably within this large area, depending on the region’s culture.
What does a spring roll have in it?
A garden spring roll, for example, will be filled with a variety of fresh veggies like carrots, bamboo shoots, bell peppers, and cabbage. And more savory spring rolls tend to be filled with meat in addition to vegetables—typically pork, chicken, and/or shrimp.

Are spring rolls healthy?
Spring rolls are great because they can easily be made paleo, too. Just wrap them up in lettuce leaves or collard greens instead of rice paper. Although I love egg rolls, choosing spring rolls instead can cut out more than half the amount of calories and fat from your meal.
