Health Benefits
According to NHS (source), the average person should be consuming at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. It’s also beneficial to incorporate both raw and cooked vegetables into your diet each day.
Some vegetables will benefit you greater once they are cooked as the temperature can break down certain cell walls allowing you to absorb more of the nutrients from them (source). But in the contrary, plenty of vegetables will actually give you more benefits in their raw form such as additional antioxidants and fibre (source). Due to these great benefits from both ways of preparation, each person should try to include a variety of both raw and cooked vegetables throughout their day.
Instead of the boring ways we all know how to eat raw vegetables such as on their own or in a simple salad, this 10 minute salad roll & spicy peanut sauce recipe will jazz up your raw vegetable consumption making them taste better than ever.

Peanut Sauce
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp rice vinegar
- 1/2-1 tsp sriracha depending on how spicy you like
- 1 small clove garlic diced
Instructions
- Make sauce – In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. If the consistency is too thick for your liking, you can add a touch of water to thin down.
- Boil water and pour into a medium sized frying pan (large enough for rice papers to fit).
- Wash, chop and prepare vegetable, fruits, leafy greens, herbs and smoked tofu. You can fry up the tofu if your like, but it doesn't need to be cooked.
- When you're ready to assemble, dip one rice wrap at a time in the hot water and lay on a plate or cutting board to add vegetables. I recommend doing only one at a time as the rice wraps become soft very quickly and the longer you wait after dipping, the more difficult they are to work with.
- Add your tofu, leafy greens, vegetables, fruits and herbs in the middle portion of the rice wraps with the sides left empty so that you can wrap it. You can also add the sauce inside the wraps if you'd like, or save it for dipping.
- Wrap like a burrito – Fold the right and left sides into the middle. Take the top portion of the rice wrap and fold that into the middle as well, but keep turning until the bottom follows and wraps around the back.
