Easy Spring Roll Recipe with Salmon

An easy spring roll recipe with sweet and spicy salmon, rice and fresh vegetables! Spring rolls made simple!

Two of my all time favorite foods are sushi and spring rolls. I always reserve these for special occasions, however, because I had no idea how to prepare them and I always assumed they were too difficult to make at home. Then I went to a sushi making party, and my mind was officially blown.

I will not go into the sushi making right now. This post is all about the spring rolls. Spring rolls are so easy; you will not even believe it! The rice paper wrapper might seem intimidating, but they are easy to handle. Flavored Salmon Pouches from Chicken of the Sea and Minute® Ready to Serve Rice make these rolls even easier! Sliced cucumbers and carrots add a crisp, cool freshness too!

This recipe starts with portable Minute® Ready to Serve Basmati Rice that heats in 60 seconds. Let this cool completely then stir in a little rice wine vinegar. Wet one sheet of rice paper at a time in warm water until it is thin and pliable and arrange it on a cutting board. Arrange a few sprigs of cilantro on your rice paper then add your lettuce followed by a spoonful cooled rice. Add the carrots, cucumber and the spicy sweet salmon and roll it up! Serve your rolls with a quick dipping sauce and enjoy!

The Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020 recommended that Americans add seafood in place of other proteins in their diets at least two meals per week. These pouches are a simple yet flavorful way to add salmon to your diet. Flavors like Lemon Pepper, Sriracha, and Barbecue make it’s easy to boost your salmon intake. The Minute Ready to Serve Rice and Chicken of the Sea Flavored Salmon Pouches are perfect together and make for a fun twist on the standard sandwich, salad or rice bowl. They are portable, do not need to be refrigerated and require little to no clean-up.
