-1 cup shredded cabbage
-2 teaspoons onion powder
3. Add cooked rice noodles to veggies. Cook on medium until the flavors meld (you can add red pepper flakes to taste, but I left this out for my kids)
After mixture cools:
4. At this point you can spray the rolls with oil if you so desire, it makes them very shinny. Be forewarned, however, oil sprayed or not, the tips and ends of the rolls get very poky when cooked
*You can add just about anything you like to these rolls. Other suggestions include: mushrooms, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, chicken/pork, onions, cilantro, basil or fennel. Have fun with your food!
*I didn’t bother making a dipping sauce for the rolls, they were tasty all on their own. But see comments for suggestions.
Amber, what an awesome job you did! Gorgeous and great step by step, too. What a wonderful addition to Iris’ theme of Chinese food!

Hello Shirley~
Thank you for your kind words. I hope others find these as equally delicious. –Amber
Thanks for joining in, Amber! I’m going to make these for dinner tonight!
Hello Iris,
Thank you for your comment…and please let me know how they turn out. I’ll be curious to how others feel about this alternative to traditional rolls. Your blog has certainly been a huge inspiration to me and I’m thrilled to be a part of this wonderful community. Warmly, –Amber
Oh my gosh! I’m glad you found my blog!! These look amazing! I never thought of baking them. I might go make a version right now after I subscribe to your blog!! 🙂
Hi There Jessica~
Thanks for your feedback. I have made these like 4 times this month. They are so easy and very tasty. Please let me know how you like them…and if you add any of your own creative flair. I’m in the process of getting my facebook/twitter/RSS feed all set up, so definitely check back in a week or so. Happy cooking, happy eating. Be Well, –Amber
Hey Amber, I did make them and they were good!!
I just basically made a veggie stirfry, with rice noodles and then baked them and dipped them in a peanut butter/sweet chili dip! So awesome thank you!
Hi There Jessica. I would ask for that dipping sauce if I wasn’t allergic to peanuts. Sounds so yummy. Glad you enjoyed the spring rolls. I’m addicted.
then you make your peanut sauce w/ almond butter silly!! Making these tonight to go with my thai chicken soup!

See, this is why I need you Tessa! That’s a great idea. I’m so deathly allergic to peanuts, I can’t even be around sunbutter (the packaged variety that is) – it just smells so much like peanut butter…it totally grosses me out! My homemade sunbutter is far better tolerated. I will have to try a dipping sauce with almond butter (or my homemade sunbutter) and I will be sure to let you know if it’s a good substitute.
I’m LOVING your Thai chicken soup Tessa! This will be made soon. Enjoy the rolls. 🙂
Ok, just like you, I was SO excited for these that I scalded my fingers in my over-zealouness to eat these! I really adore salad rolls, and this version has even more veggies and is warm!! I used bean thread noodles, lots more tamari than called for, some lime juice, fresh cilantro, and Sriacha for some heat. Ir was SO SO SO good, I already can’t wait to make them again, and will try using shiratake/’miracle’ noodles next time to make these low calorie.yum!…so glad I finally got around to making these! (I am enjoying a steaming bowl of the thai chicken soup now…..
ps, I have a proposition for you and couple of other new bloggers..but need a way to communicate w/ all of you simultaneously…would you contact me via my contact me button or message me via facebook with a good email?
Hi Tessa,
I’m so glad you enjoyed the rolls! Your version sounds excellent. The possibilities really are endless. Can’t wait to try your soup!!
Hugs,
–Amber

Hi Amber
I love the look of these rolls- yummy! Do you think I could used these for a school lunch for my son?
Look forward to some more inspiration and recipes from you!
Best wishes
Charmaine
Hello There Charmaine,
Thank you!
My suggestion would be to make these, perhaps for dinner, and give them a trial run with your son. If he seems to enjoy them, then I definitely think these would be a great lunch option. You can fill them with just about anything too. So think about chicken, pork, and other veggies. A few other bloggers have comments above with their baked veggie spring roll recipes. Let me know how they work out for you!
Be Well,
–Amber
