" Rice paper wraps are healthy and so versatile. You can mix any vegetables,leave out the shrimp if you wish. Chicken is another alternative, All the measurements in this recipe are the chopped amounts. I used my mini chopper for everything and it takes no time at all. Serve with the easy sauce that is included with this recipe - no cooking. When I say 12 servings it means 12 wraps. If you are serving these as part of a dinner use the large size rice paper and only make 4."
