Shrimp Spring Roll Recipe
If there are Shrimp Spring Rolls on the appetizer menu, then I am ordering them. I love the fresh, bright flavors and the crispy crunch of the veggies. Of course, I also love the peanut dipping sauce. I always saw them as a special treat to only have when I was eating out. But, I never realized how easy it was to make them at home! Now that I know how to make these, they are honestly on my weekly lunch rotation at home. They come together so quickly and they taste amazing.

Peanut Dipping Sauce
This dipping sauce is so good, I could literally eat it with a spoon. It also makes these spring rolls 100x better. It comes together so quickly and you likely have a lot of the ingredients on hand. This sauce is made with peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, sriracha, water, and chopped peanuts. Add everything to a bowl and then whisk everything together and you are good to go! If you make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap until you are ready to serve. When you take it out of the fridge, you may have to water it down. Stir it will and then use a little bit of milk, water, fresh lime juice, or hoisin sauce to thin it out.
